Vintage 1962 Art Print for Children, Babies   

Publisher:  Standard Publishing Co.

Artist:  *Frances Hook (approx 1920-1983) - American artist & illustrator that gained recognition for her prints that beautifully captured the innocence of children using soft pastels.  She had a successful freelance career in commercial art, creating a popular series of dew-eyed children for Northern Paper Mills tissue advertisements in the late 1950's.  Her art gave her the nickname of the 'Berta Hummel of America' for her ability to capture the innocence, emotions and expressions of youngsters in everyday situations.    

Subject:  Baby Girl / Toddler Child - Mesmerized by Monarch Butterfly

Series:  This one from a Child's Nursery Picture Portfolio of 1962. It is one of a collection of artists prints from Standard Publishing Company especially selected for children's room and nursery decor.  The collections range from impressions about children's growth landmarks and special events, charming child portraits, holiday, wildlife, and home related topics that encompass Church, faith and family.

Size:  10.75" x 13.75" (near 11 x 14 standard frame size), but this series includes an irregular margin of blank white space around the central artwork that allows for several different framing options. 

Condition:  Clean, has never been framed or exposed to light.  Always stored flat.  Very nice, will frame up beautifully!

I have had several artist print collections over the years and framed many of them for my own children's rooms.  I am cleaning out and came across my old collection of unused ones, so I am offering them individually as the subject matters are not always fluent in topic with each other if one is trying to create a collection.  Check them out.....I am happy to combine for shipping savings when requested from your cart check-out before paying.  I have to be able to put all purchases on one invoice with one shipping charge and send you back the new invoice to pay from.  On these prints, additional ones will ship for very little additional cost.  It's the initial cardboard flat that is most of the weight, the prints add little.  Feel free to message me if you have any questions on this.  Happy to help!

Shipping:  USPS as a flat between cardboard and marked for carrier attention DO NOT FOLD OR BEND.  

Thanks for Looking!
