Sad Eyed St. Bernard, 1909 Naive Watercolor by Katie Eby, Age 14, Pennsylvania antique two pocket folk art wall box but not very often dangling

but not very often dangling hearts like this

Cut visible on one short end as noted

and perhaps there is a name scratched into the brass along one edge

And then a nice brass pull at the top of the very excellent stacked pyramid of a lid

Sad Eyed St. Bernard, 1909 Naive Watercolor by Katie Eby, Age 14, Pennsylvania antique two pocket folk art wall box but not very often danglingThis is one of three watercolors by a young Katie Eby I purchased in PA from a great paper dealer, who I believe told me as I was purchasing them that they came from the estate of the important American folk art collector and gallerist John Gordon. Quite an empathetic and very soulful looking St. Bernard here, I'd say how not to love? Labeled in cursive in graphite at the bottom (in case the barrel around his neck didn't give it away) and signed on
