In fact it's a heart, not a beat box. Sorry for dance music fans.
This handmade print is a reproduction of an illustration from a vintage school book. The picture was scanned, modified, then transferred to 3 lino blocks, then engraved and printed. Each block received a different color, so each print has been pressed 3 times (red, blue, black). The original authors are Georges Devy (illustrator) and Edmond Boulenaz (engraver), in the 1930's.
