Postwar suburban life made the patio grill a family stage, and patterns like this one invited the children in as helpers. A small skunk drawn at the boy's feet adds the kind of humor McCall loved to put on its apron envelopes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection data-section=\"illustration\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIllustration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe envelope front and back are shown as scanned, framed on our blue mat without retouching, so the artwork appears in its true color and condition.
