Jack Welch
The Lost Shoe, Saturday Evening Post Cover

1951

About the Item

Date: 1951 Medium: Gouache on Paper Dimensions: 22.50" x 17.50", Framed 28.00" x 24.00" Signature: Signed Middle Right Original cover illustration for The Saturday Evening Post, September 8, 1951. The Post described, “The mothers face is charming upside-down, but if you will also stand on your head, you will find that she wears a choleric expression. She is mad at her son, which is unreasonable, for she herself has lost his shoe. He took it off last June, and is it not a woman’s duty to take care of her men’s clothing? We know where the shoe is: it is either in the Apache hide-out under the forsythia bush, in the cowpoke’s corral in the vacant lot down the street, or Fido is preserving it in his kennel as an objet d’art. Junior will go to school in sneakers, and nobody will care except his mother, who doesn’t go to school. Next week she very likely will think all this is funny, and what the moral of Jack Welch’s theme is, we don't know.” (The Saturday Evening Post, September 8, 1951, p. 3)
