Clippings from Newspapers, Magazines, and Other Clipping Sources Used as Inspiration and Example
95 items from miscellaneous sources that depict furniture, animals, carving, textile design, boxes, frames, etc. Pauline Miller Cowan used these and other sources as inspiration and as direct example for her own carving and designs.  Her work drew from many styles and periods as evidenced by the broad range of materials in these clippings. The material, though eclectic, help to form a picture of  her interests.
