Linoleum block print
Card in back reads "Striking Block Print by Lenski. Lenski, Lois. Linoleum Block Print: The Crooked Street. This is a striking limited edition linoleum block print signed by Lenski. It is a detailed black and white scene of a crooked rural street with houses, picket fences and people. Titled in pencil by Lenski The Crooked Street. The image measures 6" square with a thick black border. Although not dated, this was done early in her career most likely in the 1920's.
