Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. ix, [1], 278 pages. Illustrations (some in color). Some moisture staining and page rippling noted, including parts of the sentiments statements on the fep from both authors. The sentiments read Best Wishes, James Buddy Edgerton All the best, Nan O'Brien. Edgerton grew up on a dairy farm living next door to Norman Rockwell in West Arlington. Nan O'Brien met Edgerton on his 50th wedding anniversary, having been invited by his daughter, Deborah. For years, the family had been trying to get Buddy to write down his amazing recollections of life in West Arlington, and with the Rockwells; but upon meeting O'Brien, he decided she was the right person for the task. One of four generations of the Edgerton family to be painted by Rockwell, Edgerton was featured in a number of Rockwell paintings, most notably calendars for the Boy Scouts of America. The last of them, "Growth of a Leader" (1966), also featured his son, James Edgerton Jr., in a painting depicting the maturation of a young Cub Scout to Eagle Scout and manhood. He was the cover model for 16 issues of Lone Ranger comic books. This book was written with the full support of the Norman Rockwell Family and is the only book written to date by a non-family member to accurately reflect the life that Norman Rockwell lived and captured in his art during the most prolific time of his career. "The Unknown Rockwell" contains personal family photographs of both families, as well as Rockwell's modeling photos and his illustrations that resulted. The Foreword is written by the legendary Dick Clark. "The Unknown Rockwell: A Portrait Of Two American Families" is the personal memoir of James "Buddy" Edgerton, Norman Rockwell's neighbor in West Arlington, Vermont, for fourteen years. Buddy was a frequent Rockwell model, and was best friends with the Rockwell sons. It is the poignant story of two families tied by life and friendship in rural Vermont in the 1930s and 1940s, and the man who America regards as the pre-eminent 20th Century American artist. Norman Percevel Rockwell (February 3, 1894 November 8, 1978) was an American painter and illustrator. His works have a broad popular appeal in the United States for their reflection of the country's culture. Rockwell is most famous for the cover illustrations of everyday life he created for The Saturday Evening Post magazine over nearly five decades. Among the best-known of Rockwell's works are the Willie Gillis series, Rosie the Riveter, the Four Freedoms series, Saying Grace, and The Problem We All Live With. He is also noted for his 64-year relationship with the Boy Scouts of America (BSA), during which he produced covers for their publication Boys' Life (now Scout Life), calendars, and other illustrations. These works include popular images that reflect the Scout Oath and Scout Law such as The Scoutmaster, A Scout Is Reverent, and A Guiding Hand. Rockwell was a prolific artist, producing more than 4,000 original works in his lifetime. Most of his surviving works are in public collections. Rockwell was also commissioned to illustrate more than 40 books, including Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn and to paint portraits of Presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon, as well as those of foreign figures, including Gamal Abdel Nasser and Jawaharlal Nehru. His portrait subjects also included Judy Garland. One of his last portraits was of Colonel Sanders in 1973. His annual contributions for the Boy Scouts calendars between 1925 and 1976 were only slightly overshadowed by his most popular of calendar works: the "Four Seasons" illustrations for Brown & Bigelow that were published for 17 years beginning in 1947 and reproduced in various styles and sizes since 1964. He created artwork for advertisements for Coca-Cola, Jell-O, General Motors, Scott Tissue, and other companies. Illustrations for booklets, catalogs, posters (particularly movie promotions), sheet music, stamps, playing cards, and murals (including "Yankee Doodle Dandy" and "God Bless.
