Original – Frontispiece to Carl Sandburg's Rootabaga Stories
Reason
I always find the children's books by major authors interesting. They show a lot about what they thought important, and what messages they'd like to pass on. This is the only colour illustration; the rest is black and white, so it's a natural division. Colours should be pretty accurate; I worked off the original, so it should be within the limit of variation caused by different lighting and such.
