Banner Flower Vintage Traditional Tattoo Acetate Stencil from Bert Grimm's Shop as the gilt gesso coating

as the gilt gesso coating has begun to crumble and fall away

as it has printed on it a price of 2 for 5 cents

It appears to be a newspaper clipping affixed to a very sturdy wood board

and has been replaced by a plastic and cardboard backing

The leather handle on top of the camera is intact
