Ghost artist Charles Peterson captures life in a different time in this watercolor print titled The Daily News. People looked forward to receiving their daily newspaper which was the chief source of information. The paperboy had to carefully fold and pack the papers for delivery. They had to become accurate in their throwing skills and hope they could make friends with the neighborhood dogs. This print is number 2420 of 3000.
