Vintage framed nursery rhyme illustrations by H. M. Brock, capturing two of the most familiar and beloved childhood rhymes:

• Pat-a-Cake, Pat-a-Cake, Baker’s Man

• Sing a Song of Sixpence

These are the kinds of images many people grew up with—storybook scenes that feel instantly recognizable, even if you haven’t seen them in years. Brock’s work has a gentle, expressive style, full of movement and character, and these two pieces display that beautifully.

The color is especially strong for their age—rich, warm, and clear—with crisp detail throughout. Both prints have been protected behind glass for decades and present far better than most examples you’ll find.

They are housed in older wood frames with original backing and wire. The frames show age and light wear, which adds to the overall vintage character, but they remain solid and display-ready.

Measurements: each frame measures approximately 9.5 inches wide by 10 inches tall.

Together, they make a wonderful matched set—something that feels personal, familiar, and timeless rather than decorative for the sake of it.

Ideal for: • a nursery or child’s room with a classic feel

• a quiet reading space

• anyone drawn to vintage storybook illustration

Condition: Very nice vintage condition. Prints are clean with strong color and no major issues visible. Frames show typical age-related wear. Backing is intact. Please review photos for full detail.

Sold as a pair.
