Carrots Clipart Black and White

Carrots Clipart Black and White
Beautiful carrots. Okay, the illustration is a little flawed when it comes to the carrot on the left, but that only adds character, right? And considering the image is very old, from the year 1899, I think it looks pretty good.

Someone more ambitious (and skilled) than me could fix that up if they wanted to.

I think this is a cool image for garden related projects.

Rutagbaga Black and White Illustration Clipart

The text that originally accompanied this vintage illustration of root vegetables said that these were rutabagas and then said, "Purple Top Yellow."

Cheerful or Creepy Carnival Clown Announcer

Laughing Carnival AnnouncerI believe this is supposed to be one of those carny guys saying "Step right up!" or something like that, trying to get you to see a show at a circus or get on a roller coaster ride at the carnival. He has a bit of a clown like appearance as well.

Depending on how you look at it he is either creepy or just happy and cheerful. Actually, he might think the joke you just told is hysterical.

Man In Garden Black and White Illustration Clipart


Man In Garden Planting Seeds
Here is an illustration from the year 1915 of a man in a garden with a watering can planting seeds. Behind him you can see a fence and trees and clouds in the sky. He seems pretty dressed up to be gardening to me, wearing a waistcoat, tie and hat ... but maybe you would plant seeds wearing that back then?

Radish or Turnip or Other Root Vegetable Illustration

This year was my second year having a vegetable garden. But I am in a different location than last year and the soil and altitude and other conditions are different. There was also the hottest June recorded. So the vegetable garden hasn't gone very well...much of it is dead. The radishes aren't dead, but the roots that grew were spindly and not edible. Apparently most likely they didn't get enough water. So, I will vicariously have vegetables this year by posting pictures of them on this blog.

I don't know if this is a radish, or a turnip. Or something else. I tried asking, but got a mixed response. So I am saying it's a radish (except I named the file "radish or turnip"). Anyway, I think it's kind of cool looking. It's good for garden related designs.

It comes from an old ad for seeds from the year 1909.


radish or turnip?

Peppers Black and White Illustration

Peppers Frame Black and White Illustration

This vintage illustration has some peppers in the corner of a dotted, rectangular frame.

It was originally from an ad for seeds in a newspaper published in 1904. However it could be used for many purposes. A good image for gardeners or cooks to use. Maybe write a recipe calling for hot peppers in the blank space in the middle?

Giant Vegetables Funny Illustration

This is a funny illustration of farmers with giant vegetable (or miniature farmers with regular sized vegetables) carrying and moving them via various means such as on horses and carts.

There is a lettuce or cabbage head. Onions, peas or beans, corn, a tomato and more. There is a lot of detail to look at in this black and white illustration.
