THE DUGOUT by Norman Rockwell 

This is a print taken from a vintage art book. Measures 14 x 10" inches. The print may/not have an image/text on the back.

Comes unframed.


FYI: "This classic Norman Rockwell print shows the Chicago Cubs, the National League baseball team affectionately dubbed the loveable losers. Shows what the Chicago Cubs players were feeling during the 1948 season. The events depicted are from a double header with the Boston Braves at Boston Braves Field on May 23, 1948. The Cubs dropped both games that day, losing 5-8 the first game and 4-12 the second. At the start of the day the Cubs record was 11-15, and, at the end of the double header, their record was even worse at 11-17.  I have read opinions that this painting was what actually firmly cemented the image of Loveable Losers into the consciousness of the Chicago Cubs. We have to wonder if the Cubs management really knew what the illustration would be about. Whatever effect the painting has or has not played on Chicago Cubs' psyche over the decades since, the painting is not a flattering portrayal of the 1948 team."



About the Artist: "Norman Rockwell paintings are synonymous with the comforts and life of a small town. From landscapes to cute puppies to curious boys, his work will take you back to a simpler time when life moved slower, and neighbors knew one another. Add a homey vibe to your decor with Norman Rockwell art."
