Once I found this phrase in an old novel, I had a lot of fun creating this super grungy and aged ATC to go with it.
These boys were pictured in my grandmother's 1930s biology book in a section about the effect of hookworms on the human body. They are both supposedly 18 years old, but the boy on the left is of below average size due to having hookworms. (Who says art isn't educational?)
Thanks for stopping by!
