One boxed set of watercolor paints entitled For A Good Child, manufacturer unknown, ca. 1925. The set is comprised of 21 small, rectangular embossed cakes of watercolor paint, one small, round porcelain dish, and a very small quill brush. The set is housed within a wooden box with a sliding lid. The set's title is printed on a paper label mounted to the interior of the box, just above the first row of paints. The sliding lid is decorated with a color printed illustration of two children by the water's edge. The illustration is signed "Dagood" in the lower left-hand corner. Each of the cakes of paint is embossed with an image of a swan. No manufacturer's name or date is present. Also included are two folded sheets of blotting paper.
