It would give me a lot more than that. The boy IS terrified–no question about it.

‘The Census Taker’ is priceless! I’ve always loved this cover. Although there is no “shoe” house here, and she’s NOT an old woman, I must say she really looks like she doesn’t know what to do—in more ways than one. Oh dear me.

‘Home from Camp’ makes me think that today her hands would be ocupied with some “app” on some 5-G “phone” or iPad. Oh sorry! Those devices are so 30 seconds ago now, right?!

“Cover Girl” is one of Rockwell’s most clever covers. I never knew about the A.A. feature that makes it so expensive. Wow!
