Sam Pearlstein and his son Aaron, 7, of New Jersey, admire original cartoons by Chon Day, a Westerly resident who was a New Yorker cartoonist. The cartoons are among rare drawings, postcards, prints and photographs, mostly from the Westerly area, at a sale and auction tomorrow at the Watch Hill Chapel on Bluff Avenue in Westerly, starting at 10 a.m. The auction begins at 5 p.m. The most valuable piece is said to be an 1850 pen-and-ink and charcoal drawing of the Watch Hill Lighthouse.
