  1. This Guy is So Johnny Cute and endearing! And the illustrator, Leyendecker, was the GREATEST! First there was Charles Dana Gibson whose pen and ink illustrations were unrivalled. Leyendecker emulated Dana's style within Art Deco, then Rockwell proceeded from there. But Leyendecker! The way he captured folds within fabric and stylized the highlights upon cloth and flesh were Genius! Unrivalled!
