I believe indigenous to it

with light wear and some spotting to the wood on one side

Fran Tarkenton and a Good Man, Child's Marker Drawing on (Girdle) Board, 1970 small brush Using a thick brushOne of three 1970 drawings by a genius child artist, who clearly loved his sports, and his athletes. This one pays tribute to Fran Tarkenton and to a "Good Man," being who I am not sure, but perhaps it is his bearded face that floats about the text. This drawing seems to have taken a little water at some point, making the black bleed a little, but I don't think it detracts from the fabulousness of the two football players with their long blue bodies
