Block, Wood

Artifact

King, Andrew
1912 – 1958
It is a rectangular block of wood with a carved relief of the number "2" backwards. It is patchily stained with black ink and has a buildup of dirt on the edges of the "2". It appears to be carved by machine due to the lack of errors and overall consistency. There is a 6 cm crack forming at the top that is also evident at the back. The back is stained with wood stain and is minimally marked with faded black lines of ink.
