    Oh Ron you came across gold!!!. I thought it was Norman Rockwell's paintings as well. I am so fascinated with his paintings. Amazing to find another person who inspired Rockwell. Thank you so much Ron for taking the time to stop in and show us. ❤❤ I definitely am a person who won't forget him and now we have a new person to remember❤

    This absolutely blows my mind! To think there was someone who inspired Norman Rockwell ! Who would have known those magazines (10 cents maybe) would have become such a huge part of our lives and an era gone.Thanks again Ron for bringing the past alive again for this and hopefully the next generation.Never to old to learn.😊

    Wow, I have never heard of J.C. Leyenecker before. I would have thought of Norman Rockwell too. We are never too old to learn something new. Thank you, Ron, for showing us this cool museum.

      Leyendecker's approach looks to have differed markedly from that of Rockwell's. Where Leyendecker painted from his sketches of studio models, Rockwell's paintings were based on his photographs of set pieces --- tableaus, I guess you could call them --- with "costumed" studio models. Rockwell would trace off of the photos.

    Wow, I am so happy you shared your "find", Ron! I have always been a fan of Norman Rockwell, in fact, I have a collection of figurines depicting 12 of the paintings he did for the Saturday Evening Post. I was never aware that he had a predecessor who, I am sure, inspired him. Thanks again, Ron, I will be doing some research

    I have info about a Norman Rockwell painting. When I began my position with Purdue University as an Extension Ed, I noticed that one of his paintings was hanging in our office. It was the painting of Purdue Ext. Ag rep. working with a farmer and 2 young girls. (I think it was 2)and their pet 4-H cow. The youngest of the girls in the pic was my boss when working for Ball State Univ. The Purdue Ag Educator was her father. The girl, my boss, was Avanelle Reed from Ripley Co, in Indiana. Found out later that this picture is hanging in every Extension Office in the state of Indiana. I think there are 92 offices. Avanelle said that he was the nicest, kindest man .

    There's a museum in Hannibal, MO that commemorates Mark Twain and his stories. There was original artwork by Norman Rockwell. I did not realize Norman R. Illustrated Mark Twain's novels. There's also a death mask of Mark Twain's baby.

      I have actually been there. I was down in St Louis doing the story of the Mad Doctor McDowell, ruclips.net/video/kjswRTsbvHI/видео.html, the grave robber, and there I reference the cave.
      but when I went to film there at the cave, the owners said "no filming, no no no".
      dumb - it was their loss.

    Unfortunately, J.C. and Rex Leyendecker, were very undervalued, as an Illustrator, compared to Norman Rockwell. The Arrow Collar Men. Probably, because of their pasts/relationships/tragic death. Though, both Painters were exceptionally talented, Leyendeckers works, always caught my eyes in details, the Female and Male Forms and Still Life Advertisements, with their Planier Works. As a Still Life Artist/Illustrator, Paper Empheria Collector, I had tried to find as much info on Leyendeckers works, when I was a Student at SCAD, in Savannah., not even their massive Library, had much to research on them. I think there are only a few Hardcover Books, that are out of print, but are pricey to purchase., unless, there is a newer release. To make a long story short, I just wrote a 12 page Paper on Norman Rockwell. Anyways, what a rare and wonderful treat to see these beautiful original works. I hope someday soon they might have his works, or Rockwells on display at the Frist in Nashville.
