Wonderful Old Folk Art Goat on Wheels Pull Toy drafting brush I love its rounded form

I love its rounded form and gold edging at each level of the stack

but also as the evocation of two bodies pressed snugly up against one another when placed side by side

The fact that a few different companies produced these

which is a framed English Prattware pot lid

I think as a wonderfully succinct distillation of ideas of coming and going and crossing thresholds

Wonderful Old Folk Art Goat on Wheels Pull Toy drafting brush I love its rounded formLove at first sight with this old folk art toy which I think perfectly captures the likeness and spirit of a goat, aptly on wheels, as in my experience goats rarely stand still! Wonderful face, wonderfully graphic, and clearly an old one, early 20th c. I'd guess, with plenty of wear to both the paint and wood of the wheels, indicating he's been rolled around a lot! 5 1 16" x 5" x 2 3 8" and in good, stable condition, with loss to the top of one horn
