Objects: Venice Sketchbook

A great find in a secondhand bookstore in DC. Venice Sketchbook by Huck Scarry is filled with watercolors, pencil sketches, and journal entries. Interesting trivia: He is the son of the famous children's author/illustrator Richard Scarry (Huck's real name is Richard Scarry, Jr. You might remember that Huck is the nickname of Huckle Cat, a famous Busytown character -- which I assume is the inspiration for Richard Jr.'s pseudonym).
