the Rockhold clock
This clock sits in Gramma's living room. She purchased it maybe 40 years ago from Ed Rockhold of Baldwin City. In those early days when he was I think an elder at the Baldwin chapel and they met in the home of Dr. Ray Jones. Gramma Ruth however was as always, in Springfield. Not till she married Dad did she move to OKC and then 20 years later to Lawrence. 15 years ago we often ran down to there place and would sometimes help Dad keep this clock running...
One of our High School teachers would be very willing to remind me that the perspective on this sketch is a little off. Our friend Pam would know of whom I speak, as would some others.
Done in a small Strathmore pad with a couple markers with different points.
