Original trade card forms part of: Collection no. 311, History & Special Collections for the Sciences, Louise M. Darling Biomedical Library, UCLA. One side of the card contains a color illustration of a wooden water mill on a riverbank in a snowy winter scene. The main colors are brown and white, with a greenish tint over all to suggest darkness. The windows of the mill reveal light from within the building. In the sky is the moon, obscured within a misty, cloudy sky. Lydia E.
