An image very much like the google link, but cruder,  is on page 506 of the 1913 edition of "ABC and XYZ...."  This image has smaller and more bees as well as weeds around the skep.  It also lacks the knob on top, the vertical sewing and the fancy bottom border shown on the google image.  It is easily possible the google image is a redrawn version of this old ABC image.
