This is the Signed unique original Gouache painting by G W Backhouse.

Old 'Blacknose' Strikes to Kill. A fictionalised account of an encounter between these two famous adversaries, reminiscent of a similar encounter described in the short story Rikki-Tikki-Tavi by Rudyard Kipling.

A very early Backhouse Look and Learn painting for Look and Learn no. 39 (13 October 1962). Also unusual is that this has a clear prominent signature by the artist. The artwork was later re-used in the book Wonders of Nature published in 1969.
