Boy Showing Off Badges by Norman Rockwell

August 17, 1918 Issue of The Literary Digest



Boy Showing Off Badges, this Norman Rockwell painting, appeared on the cover of The Literary Digest published August 17, 1918.

This was Rockwell's first cover illustration for The Literary Digest. The Literary Digest went on to feature Rockwell artwork on its cover forty-six more times through 1923.

Boy Showing Off Badges

Rockwell painted three covers for the magazine in 1918. All three were related to World War I. This illustration shows a young boy showing the badges he earned doing his part to help the war effort.

He is very proud and whistling to show his happiness.

The boy is also showing his patriotism by wearing his red sweater and red, white and blue necktie.

Norman Rockwell especially loved painting children. His enthusiasm really shines in this painting...
