What happened to the top of the head of the male doll the girl is holding? I guess only Leyendecker knows, right?

‘Knight in Shining Armor’ and ‘George Washington on Horseback’ are both great examples of the ‘spectacularness’ that typified many of his covers. ‘Living Mannequin’ was definitely his too, but was more toned-down in a Rockwell-ish way. He was extremely diverse as all his POST covers show, and of course his ads.

But, you can’t deny the power of his work.
