Grain Harvest
Johnny Barleycorn issues a rousing call for help with the Scottish harvest in this woodcut-style animation
Where's my scythe? This recruitment cartoon appealing for help bringing in Scotland's harvest is stirring stuff, thanks to a rousing rendition of the folk song Johnny Barleycorn. Crafted in the style of woodcut relief printing in stark black and white, there are some lovely details, such as the walking bag of cash beckoning the prospective workers from the town to the country.
