Description
A vintage patent drawing shows three detailed technical illustrations of an American football, rendered in black ink on aged cream paper with handwritten annotations and official patent markings dated December 6, 1932. The composition presents the oval ball from multiple angles with precise cross-sections and measurement guides, capturing both the form's three-dimensional geometry and the practical engineering that defines the sport's iconic shape. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
