OUTSTANDING ORIGINAL DESIGN SKETCH FOR THE WYMAN’S FANCY BLUEBERRIES LABEL. Bright gouache and water colored label has bush of blueberries with two birds on branches against a top blue background and decorative bottom border. The following is on the painting “Wyman’s Fancy Blueberries Extra Quality Packed at Cherryfield, Washington Co. ME by J & EA Wyman”. Someone at a later date has put two pencil lines through Cherryfield and has written Milbridge next to it. We are not sure whether this is original to the piece or whether a family member changed it when Wyman’s moved to Milbridge, Maine. Housed in a modern partial gilt molded wood frame with white matte indicating “Original design sketch Forbes Litho, Boston 1891”. PROVENANCE: The J. Hollis Wyman Estate, Milbridge, Maine (State Senator and Wild Blueberry King). SIGHT SIZE: 4” x 11”. CONDITION: Very good. 9-29358 (400-800)
