This lot features framed vintage telegraph greeting forms illustrated by Norman Rockwell for Western Union. The collection includes a "Mother's Day Greeting" form depicting an elderly woman reading a message while a man looks on, and a "Valentine Greeting" form featuring a colonial-style couple and a cherub with a bow. These forms highlight Rockwell's commercial work in the mid-20th century, where his art was used to add a personal, sentimental touch to standard telecommunications. An additional loose Mother's Day greeting header is also included.

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