Vintage Rubber Horse Covers

Continuing with the Horse topic, here I post today two pages from an old magazine about Rubber Horse Covers and its price list. The horse illustrations are wonderful. 

One good idea would be to transfer the price list section onto a blank canvas as a base for a collage.
