Wounded Old Folk Art Noah's Ark Crocodile portable ink bottle which could be product ofThis crocodile is from a group of wonderful old handmade animals I found this past weekend in New Hampshire, I believe from a Noah's Ark set, though I'm not entirely sure all from the same set.

Great hand painted details against the gray paint, and then of course a long red mouth filled with teeth! 4 15 16" l x 3 4" w x 1" t. There is a chip to one
