Norman Rockwell published over 300 original covers for the Saturday Evening Post from 1916 to 1963. While at first glance this cover seems to be a period study of a nineteenth-century bandsman, it is in fact the depiction of a twentieth-century grocer rehearsing for his part in the local marching band. If the dog's expression is any indication of how skilled this musician is, then the trumpeter's abilities are strictly those of an amateur.
