Description
Two technical drawings rendered in sepia tones depict railroad crossing mechanisms from a 1936 patent, with the left figure showing the iconic crossbuck sign and bell apparatus, and the right showing the articulated signal arm in raised position. The composition balances engineering precision with historical weight, rendered in fine linework against an aged paper ground that evokes the original patent document's weathered authenticity. Precision-cut from thick, satin-finish paperboard and made to order, in 500 or 1,000 pieces. An afternoon spent building an independent artist's work.
