Bill tries the cat
Description
A depiction of a soldier from the shoulders up. His moustache is enlarged, and he frowns, appearing sad. A cat with a bandaged paw sits on and is tethered to the helmet the soldier is wearing.
This drawing is attributed to Louis Vasco - the artist's given name was Vasco Loureiro but he enlisted as Louis Vasco and has signed his name 'Vasco', 'Spr Vasco'.
