One set of drawing cards entitled Easy Drawing Lessons for Blackboard or Slate, by E. Croasdale, printed by J.M. Stoddart & Co., Philadelphia, 1879. The label identifies E. Croasdale as the "Principal, Philadelphia School of Design for Women." The set is comprised of 36 cards, each containing white images against a black background. Intended for copying, the lessons begin with simple lines and progress to more complex forms. Each card is numbered in the upper left-hand corner and contains two images. For example, card 36 shows a young man holding a baseball bat on the left-hand side and on the right-hand side a cricket bat, ball and wickets. Printed on one side of the wrapper is: "Edwards & Docker, Box Makers, 418 Market St., Philadelphia." Original price for the cards, 25 cents.
