Might this pictorial have

been on either a vertical

or horizontal scroll

I know there were more than one of these fairy tale tabs. The one in Baraboo the picture is painted on.

Was it a single image

or was it on a scroll

In his book, CLOWN, Emmett Kelly wrote of painting scenes like this. He was a skilled cartoonist and illustrator, and did a wagon panel like this of Disney characters, signing with a note saying, "With apologies to Walt Disney". He also told of a boss saying of his big signature, "Well, we see Kelly certainly believes in signing his name." He went back and painted it over, reducing his name to small letters.

It's paint on wood. There is a different image on each side.
