What yard owner hasn't learned the futility of attempting to rake up leaves faster than nature can drop them? In Peter Arno's autumn-toned illustration for the November 27, 1926 New Yorker cover, a patient figure leans on his rake, waiting for the last bit of foliage to drift off the branch and be added to his pile. Our new snow globe brings the classic fall scene to life: Shake up the globe and watch as leaves swirl around his head, undoing all his work. An endlessly charming and witty piece to keep on your desk or give as a gift.
