Do You Mean to Stand There an' Tell Me You Has Lost my Ring?
By George Brehm
Located in Fort Washington, PA
Saturday Evening Post Story Illustration, November 12, 1938
Both George Brehm and his younger brother Worth, had the ability to illustrate stories about children, particularly boys, sympathetically and convincingly. Perhaps this insight developed from their small-town Hoosier upbringing.
George studied at the Art Students League in New York with Twachtman, DuMond, and Bridgman, but did his first illustration for the Reader’s Magazine, published by the Bobbs-Merrill Company near his home in Indianapolis. On the strength of this work, he obtained an assignment from The Delineator in New York, and his career was launched. Over the years, he illustrated a variety of mainstream magazines; his most memorable pictures were done for The Saturday Evening Post for story series by Booth Tarkington...

'I Dare You' Liberty Magazine Cover
Located in Fort Washington, PA
Original cover for Liberty magazine, published February 7, 1931.
It’s wintertime and the streets are filled with muddy slush as the children of the neighborhood, Gwendolyn Smithers and Red Hancock, play outside. Red climbs to the top of a swaying wooden fence and begins to walk across it like a tightrope as he brags to Gwendolyn, “I bet you can’t do this.” Hoping he would slip, Gwendolyn giggles, “Ho-ho! I bet I can do it with my eyes shut.” As his ankles shake on the wobbling fence, Red bravely shouts, “I dare you...
