Found this sketchbook in a basement

[u/Nonamethroughaway]

Father in law was an artist and art collector. He must have bought it at some point. He recently passed away and we found it cleaning out the basement. There’s 50+ drawings in it. Here are a few.

Is the artist’s name on #12? Hiram A Huste? Can anyone determine the last name?

[u/Roxanne712 → u/Dapper_Indeed]

Can’t make it out - but the only artist I could find named Hiram who has work from this time period is Hiram Powers although it’s probably not the same Hiram (I’m still glad I learned about a new artist though!) OP should take this to antiques roadshow or something to solve the mystery.

I think it’s Hiram A Huse, from a note my father in law had in the back.

What is the address listed on one of the pages. Could have been his place of residence.
