Question: Are children's book illustrations in this style likely to be marketable today!?
Have a look at this link!. These drawings are by one of my favorite children's book illustrators from the turn of the 20th century, W!.W!. Denslow!. His claim to fame was illustrating the first publication of "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz," by L!. Frank Baum!.

If he were alive today, and freelancing his illustrations, would the drawings earn him a lot of money!?

I don't know if he'd get a lot of money or not!. But if I wrote a children's book, I'd love to have illustrations like his in my book!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
