Visual Materials
One boxed set of metal stencils entitled Colouring and Sketching with Metal Stencils, manufactured by W & S B., ca. 1890. The set is comprised of six tin stencils, four colored pencils, one Gillette razor blade (only its wrapper remains) and 5 blank postcards. The stencils were to be used on the postcards; only one postcard has been drawn upon. The set is housed within a paperboard box, which has a paper label mounted to the top lid. The label is illustrated in color with an image of three children playing. "W & S B" and "No. 1241" are printed in the lower left and right-hand corners, respectively, of the lid. "Made in Germany" is printed on the label also. The tin stencils include images of a ship, a train, a windmill and a house.
