Warning! Resonant 19th Century English Transfer Decorated Child's Mug red headed doll Some surface scratches and erosion

Some surface scratches and erosion to the surface of the tintype particularly lower left corner

and while it shows its age

but the booklet is holding together well and individual drawings are in good shape

I am not certain if OV signifies the initials of the artist or something else

I really like the somewhat looser handwriting in this one

Warning! Resonant 19th Century English Transfer Decorated Child's Mug red headed doll Some surface scratches and erosionDifferent 19th century child's mugs for different reasons though made for children, these always feel quite loaded in one way or another, and here the all caps urgent "WARNING" feels very timely indeed. Also a reminder that, as much as we might like to imagine otherwise, most childhoods were never carefree. 2 11 16" d x 2 3 4" t. 3 1 2" across at handle. Very very good antique condition, no chips, cracks or other issues, just a few imperfections
