I have a black and white picture that appears to be in black ink. Under a jewelers loop there are no picels that would indicate a print. I'm assuming it is an original. It is signed on the bottom "Hurd '56" and it is of a man with a hat and a woman. It has a contemporary/cartoonish appearance. I have searched the web and cannot find anything on it. Does anyone have any insight on it?

Judging by last name and date, it could be possible that it is by this artist:

I appreciate the input but I thought it might be a Hurd. I am not sure since none of his other work looks like this. I wondered if anyone knows anymore about it.
