What do you remember Norman Rockwell for? Chances are it's for the series of witty covers he completed for The Saturday Evening Post. But he should be remembered for so much more than that. There is a body of work well worth exploring: story illustrations for the Ladies' Home Journal, covers for popular magazines such as Boy's Life, Literary Digest, and Life; there's the journalistic interpretations of social themes and portraits of political figures for Look magazine; and, exciting for me to discover, the advertisements for corporate giants like AT&T and Kellogg cereal.
Rockwell postcards are an inexpensive but delightful way of discovering his work and starting a collection. What I currently have in stock are listed below and are official cards.
