Trying to discover more info on this illustration on the cover of a book of poems by Rudyard Kipling. Name of artist and title of work would be very helpful. Appreciate any help.

I couldn't find that specific edition but I found several illustrators associated with "Recession".

One edition was illustrated by W. St. John Harper and George T. Tobin.

Your illustration looks very similar to Tobin's work.

@boomerang,
Thanks for the lead. I've had trouble making out the signature at the bottom of the illustration. It looks like a portion of the signature has been cut off (the illustration looks like it has been cut to size and fit into a recess in the book cover as opposed to being printed on the cover). However, in light of your suggestion it appears it may be W. St. John Harper but I'll see what I can find under both names. Thanks for taking the time!
