THIS MONTH'S COVER: When artist DOUGLASS CROCKWELL of Glens Falls, New York, was painting the toy-shop window scene for Coronet's Christmas cover, he had no trouble finding models. His daughter, Johanna, and her cousin, John Bridge, were ready and willing to pose for him. But he did have trouble convincing his models that the toys were just to be looked at, not played with. For two weeks, while the work was in progress, the children gazed at the display with such delight and longing that in the end Crockwell succombed to their mute appeal. He bought about half the toys and put them away for Johanna's and John's Christmas. [On the FRONT and BACK cover!]
