This oil on canvas ad for DuMont television was reproduced in 1950 in The Saturday Evening Post. Having established himself as a first-rate illustrator, Rockwell was able to pick and choose his assignments. His success was due to his ability to represent American life and family values, and to make us feel a part of this happy foursome!

This 1939 advertisement was created for Green Giant, and was one of several featuring families enjoying dinner with corn on the cob. As we can see big sister is trying to be neat, while little brother is unconcerned with manners and is clearly in a hurry to finish this piece and grab another.

Cousin Reginald Goes Swimming A magazine cover must tell a complete
story without aid of the written word.
Rockwell achieves that goal with the 1917
cover of Country Gentleman. Some of the
most humorous covers he created revolved
around Cousin Reginald, the city slicker,
and in this instance his clear hesitation to
take the plunge.
