Pen and ink silhouette decoration by Elinor Lyon to illustrate her book 'The House in Hiding'. The drawing is initialled 'EBL'.
A residue of black sugar paper in the corners on the reverse of the illustration suggests this illustration was previously surface-mounted onto another sheet of paper. In addition, small pieces of sellotape along the top and bottom edges of the paper suggest the illustration was also previously taped to another sheet of paper.
