Lot 416 Norman Rockwell Gorham Spring Tonic First Edition Figurine
A polychrome glazed ceramic figurine group titled "Spring – Spring Tonic," produced by the Gift World of Gorham. This collectible figurine is inspired by Norman Rockwells 1957 Four Seasons Illustrations. The sentimental genre scene depicts a caregiver administering medicine from a spoon to a seated patient, who is wrapped in a quilted blanket, while a small black and white cat looks on. The composition is set upon a rectangular base finished to resemble wooden floorboards. Markings on the front base include the embossed signature "Norman Rockwell." The underside is printed with text confirming the piece as a "First Edition" and noting its inspiration: "THIS SELECTION INSPIRED BY Norman Rockwells FOUR SEASONS ILLUSTRATIONS FOR 1957 FIRST EDITION Spring – Spring Tonic FROM THE GIFT WORLD OF GORHAM." A separate mark confirms the manufacturing origin: "MADE IN JAPAN."
