The Unknown

Bailey produced hundreds over drawings over the years, and although many have been identified as to when and where they were created, some remain a mystery. The first drawing below is a perfect example. We have no record as to what house this is, or what year Bailey made this beautiful sketch.


The following drawings were created in 1935, but Bailey left no clues as to the locations. We can only wonder as to whether these places and buildings exist today, and what they would look like if they do.



 Bailey excelled at sustaining memories and capturing moments, and his remarkable body of work gives us a glimpse into the past that we would not have otherwise.
