Original book illustration of pretty demure-looking young lady in wearing winter clothing sledging from the 1920's era book "Winter Sportings" by Reginald Arkell, illustrated by Lewis Baumer. The original text is "Katie came to Klosters With a lipstick and a luge" Book published by Herbert Jenkins Ltd. London SW1 First Edition 1929
A luge is a racing toboggan on which riders lie on their backs, descending feet first - the joke here is that the girl looks far too demure to be charging downhill on a little toboggan!
