This copy of a famous Revolutionary War painting featuring fife and drums was borrowed by The Cracker Jack Co. These large paper posters had instructions along the top saying that they could be folded over the edge and used to decorate a container such as a trash can or box! This is one of the first pieces I had framed to decorate my wall.
Happy 4th of July to all
