THIS WEEK’S COVER
- Residents of Connecticut will recognize the setting of John Falter’s cover. The store is patterned after one the artist has patronized in Southport, Connecticut. It occurred to Falter that rarity is a relative thing, and that dealers in the old and unusual might be all this summer in the new and unusual—a new car. If you could hear the antique dealers in his painting, you would hear them making the same sighs of awe and delight over the gleaming new automobile in which their customers arrive as the antique hunters are making over the pre-autobobile chair. “How I’d like to have that,” is what all concerned are saying about different subjects.
