Tramp Art (literally "Tramp Art" or "Tramp Art") is an example of folk art combining wood carving and woodworking that emerged in the United States during the second half of the 19th century, particularly from the 1870s to the 1940s. It is an art form that is found throughout the world. It is considered naïve art or "folk art". These were small pieces of wood, mostly from discarded cigar boxes, shipping crates or fruit crates, placed in layers with the edges notched and stacked to make a variety of household objects. Artists used tools such as a pocket knife to carve the wood into utilitarian or decorative objects. Important notes on 'Tramp art': It was the art of the everyday man and no two objects were alike.
