sketch books

I've been trying to find my old schools sketch books following a chat with an FB friend but so far mine have proved to illusive but I did find a sketchbook that was my grandfathers.

I think it dates from around 1920 so he was maybe 13ish so a typical school boy book, trains, planes and motorcycles!






Although there are a few pages of notes and shading exercises .


although I'm not sure whether this plane is landing or crashing!!


The one thing that I do know is that my Dad also had a love of planes and bikes which he passed down to me x

That's a find! Nice to think that someday my great, great whatevers may come across mine if they don't get chucked out first.
