Delicate Pencil Drawing of Flowering Branches with Thorns (Hawthorn?) boxing figures Cat itself measures 12 1/2"

Cat itself measures 12 1/2" x 8 7/8" x 2" (wood is 13/16" thick)

8 1/2" long x 5 1/8" wide x 4 1/2" tall

or—as he himself has travelled at least one ocean and more than a century—perhaps to be tucked into a suitcase as a good luck talisman

with the lid sliding on and off smoothly but holding tight

Drawing is still crisp and clear
