Sight Size 25.00" x 23.00;" Framed 31.25" x 29.25"
Original cover illustration for The Saturday Evening Post, November 11, 1961.
The Post described, “When the grown-ups come back from the theater and wake a fellow up with their talking, he can hardly be expected to pass up a chance to eat turkey and ham and potato chips. Especially when he clearly never has passed up a chance to eat turkey and ham and potato chips—or anything else good for that matter. Artist George Hughes’s barefoot party crasher has done his crashing so quietly that one startled guest finds himself in danger of an unexpected collision. But to mother, busy with the cheese fondue, it will come as no surprise to see a small and sleepy chow hound waiting in line for a roll. She’ll know that the plate will be clean in a matter of minutes, where-upon the little seeker of a snack will crawl back into the sack.”
