Item Description
Between 1870-1930 a relatively little-known but widespread form of folk art blossomed in America called Tramp Art. Made of wooden cigar boxes or produce crates, these chip-carved and layered pieces were fashioned into frames, jewelry boxes, and even furniture.
Though the term Tramp Art implies that the pieces were created by hobos, it is believed, in fact, to have been created primarily by skilled but itinerant German or Scandinavian immigrants who traveled the country selling or trading their wares.
