Description:
Wood Engraving Block
Two—sided engraving wood block. One side has a eagle in flight. The Eagle is holding a creature (human, perhaps). The eagle's wings were spread. Rocky outcroppings provide a border around the eagle. A sky boarder is delineated at the top of the block. The eagle and border are carved and stained dark against a light wood background.

The flip side displays a hummingbird, wings spread, approaches an iris. Both the hummingbird and flower are surrounded by tall curving weeds. A thin stained border surrounds the scene. The engraving block has 'DeArmond' and 'Eagle & Prey' written in dark ink on two sides of the block. 'Eagle and Prey' is printed on a white label and affixed to one side of the block. 'Hummingbird and Flowers' printed on a white label is affixed to another side with a small white label with '$250' flanking it.
