For a good boy

FOR A
GOOD BOY

I HAD A LITTLE DOGGY
THAT USED TO SIT
AND BEG,
BUT DOGGY TUMBLED
DOWN THE STAIRS,
AND BROKE HIS LITTLE LEG.

OH DOGGY I WILL
NURSE YOU, AND TRY
TO MAKE YOU WELL,
AND YOU SHALL
HAVE A COLLAR,
WITH A PRETTY LITTLE BELL.

I do not know how this bookmark is signed on the back, nor whether there is a woven diamond registration mark.

There is a second version of this bookmark, recorded as sb 704, in which the little boy is shown three quarters, and with a white dog.
The impression is that this sb 704 version is an improvement on the one above, and perhaps of later manufacture. The reverse of sb 704 though is shown, and that has the diamond registration mark. It is possible the design above was the one that was actually registered.
