Color limited edition 20 x 26.5 lithograph entitled ‘Pipe and Bowl Sign Painter,’ part of an edition of 200 numbered prints published in 1976, numbered #200/200, signed in the lower right border in pencil. Gorgeously matted and framed to an overall size of 31.5 x 38. In fine condition. Rockwell paid $10 to his model, James K. Van Brunt, to shave off his mustache when posing for the image, as the Post’s editor objected to his identifiability from past covers. The ‘Pipe and Bowl’ image became the first Saturday Evening Post cover to appear in full color. Oversized. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
