Norman Rockwell: 332 magazine covers, by Christopher Finch

 

I bought this small book (4.3 x 4.7 inch) at the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Massachusetts. It is introduced with an essay by Christopher Finch and organized chronologically into 10 sections. Paging through these plates is a great way to spend an hour or two. You can also see all of these magazine covers at the museum, but we haven't been able to go since 2019. We've tried to visit at least once a year; we like to review the standing exhibits, but also check out the changing exhibits as well. One of my favorites from a few years ago was the Roz Chast exhibit. Another good one was "Woodstock to the Moon: 1969 Illustrated."
