Description
Collection of 6 ORIGINAL COLOR DRAWINGS - on 5 X 3 cards. Sent to fulfill THE SECRET PAL ("Peanut Pal") tradition practiced in some women's organizations. We believe, Gertrude Marcia May [Warren] White, always known as Trude was the artist. The recipient was Phyllis Beals. Possibly from the Warwick, Road Island area. Apparently, this was sort of a game played by women in which they drew names and then in secret would do little things, or send items such as this, to another woman. In the beginning the receiver would not know who was doing the favors. Little by little the doer would begin to leave hints and eventually the receiver would know who the doer was. It was not uncommon for this to take place over a year's time or so. CIRCA 1938. Fine condition.
