J.C. Leyendecker
1935 Baby New Year Balances the Budget
Cover illustration for The Saturday Evening Post, January 3, 1935
Inspired by the events of the day, Leyendecker's New Year's babies took on an array of issues, from women's suffrage and women in politics to balancing the budget during the Great Depression, seen here. Leyendecker was twenty years Rockwell's senior, an early inspiration who also became a friend. |
