This lot features three framed Life magazine covers illustrated by Norman Rockwell, primarily focusing on domestic and military interactions during the World War I era. The collection includes "Her Adopted Son" (May 1918) depicting a soldier with a young child and an elderly man; "An American Missionary" (April 1918) featuring a soldier teaching a young girl how to swing a baseball bat; and "'Till the Boys Come Home" (August 1918) showing a group of women on a shore looking out toward the sea. These illustrations are excellent examples of Rockwell's early narrative style and his ability to capture the American home front and military experience.

These pieces originate from the former Norman Rockwell Museum of the South collection.
