NORMAN ROCKWELL
Inscribed matchbook cover to an admirer
Matchbook Cover inscribed and signed: "My best wishes to the father/of Dennis Holeray/sincerely/Norman/Rockwell", 4½x1½. Beige cover, no imprint. Dated in ink (unknown hand) on verso: "April 1968". Norman Rockwell (1894-1978) captured scenes from American life in his magazine covers and illustrations, often noted for their humorous and accurate depictions of 1940's and 1950's life. Rockwell's drawings, however, were skillfully executed with minute attention to detail and were so realistic that they usually resembled photographs rather than paintings. He painted over 300 covers for the "Saturday Evening Post" (1916-1965) after beginning his career at age 18 as an illustrator for "Boy's Life". In addition to his many works for the Post, Rockwell illustrated the "Boy Scout Calendar" from 1926-1976. Rockwell published his autobiography, Norman Rockwell, My Adventures as an Illustrator, in 1960. Folds, vertical fold nicks the "N" of Norman. Slightly soiled. Staple holes at blank right margin. Fine condition.
