This whimsical pencil drawing by Oz illustrator John R. Neill is for an uncompleted fantasy
illustration showing two very Ozzy characters marching with fife and
drum! The older gentleman is wearing a tights and pumpkin hose, and
bells on one of his ankles and around his neck; the boy, beating the
large drum has a chain of bells trailing down his back. Both cheery
fellows have hats with sprigs of holly at the top. Might this have been
drawn by Neill for possible use as a Christmas card? In any case it is a
charming and somewhat Ozzy fantasy drawing!
