THE COVER

One day after school three young ladies met in Norman Rockwell’s studio to pose for a painting that called for charming smiles. And one of them, rendering her mouth ajar, proudly revealed a startling discrepancy in her charm department. “When I was eating, it wobbled right out,” she glowed. “Gee, isn’t that a scrumptious big hole?” One girl gave the chasm a grave, clinical examination and maybe she’ll grow up to be a dentist, but the third lass, smitten with jealousy, uttered not a word of praise. So Rockwell was smitten with the first cover idea that ever walked spontaneously into his studio which, considering his approximately 900 Post covers, was long overdue. He didn’t paint the detached tooth, though the owner had it with her—it wasn’t very charming.
