| American Antiquarian Society Copy Notes | Subject: Advertising print for patent rulers. Chubby children, many of them with insect-like fairy wings on their backs, work on and around a large writing desk on which an oversized ruler rests. Cherubs using the patent ruler easily cut paper, draw straight lines, and measure distances, while cherubs not using the ruler struggle messily.
