"Handbook for Boys, Boy Scouts of America," 1944

In 1913, Norman Rockwell began illustrating covers for Boys' Life magazine--a periodical geared to young readers. Eleven years later, Rockwell began a 52-year relationship with the Boy Scouts of America, creating works for the organization's yearly calendars. Many of these illustrations were later repurposed--the image on the cover of this 1944 Handbook for Boys first appeared in the 1939 calendar.
