About the Cover
Matthew, the happy engineer, and sister Julia, the stern conductor,
are keeping the train on time for the holidays. The train is an actual
live steam operation on the front yard of a good friend of ours here
in Knox, Indiana. The kids are equipped with their own Hamilton 992
watches, safely moored on heavy chains. Behind them is daddy's
Hamilton 992 Elinvar in a Model 6 case.
On a recent trip to deliver artwork, Diana Burnett met my son
Matthew, who was wearing overalls and carrying his own watch. She
asked if we could place a picture of him on the cover of the December
edition of the magazine. I offered to do the illustration. I couldn't
say no. the original artwork has already been sold However, limited
edition giclee fine art prints, limited to 300 editions, are available
through my website at:
