Matchstick Book Ends - Folk Art - Prison Art

MATCHSTICK BOOK ENDS ... A classic style of Matchstick Art ... The artist has chosen to burn the ends of the matches and slightly beyond giving this piece a very rustic appearance ... Matches are stacked in alternating unburned ends and burnt end bundles to create a graphic block pattern ... Back is wood and the bottom book support is metal and attached at the bottom, signed in red on both in a stylized "JP" ... Condition is very good with just a few minor rubs to the edges and one matchstick is missing on one towards the top left peak (please review photos) ... Measurements: 5 3/4" width, 5 1/2" height, 3/4" depth, 4 3/4" depth including bottom metal support ...
