Hunting and Fishing Cover Art C.J. Peters Company Cambridge Artist
Cover Art by C.J. Peters Company of Cambridge "Ernest" Character November 1935 Issue Hunting and Fishing Magazine
About the cover ......"For those who may be still further inter­ested in this sterling sportsman character, it might be added that Ernest stands about fourteen inches in his hunting boots. He, his dog, and the game in the foreground were n1odeled in wax by the Editor. His gun is carved from wood. His finely tail­ored garments were made by Gertrude Travis. The trees in the background are sweet-fern bushes. The evergreen is a red cedar about a foot high. The stones in the wall and foreground, and the grass and moss were collected for assembly on a plus-ter of Paris hill. The background is a painted canvas. 
This study of Ernest was 1·eproduced di­rect with the engraver's color camera in the way that paintings are reproduced in color. The work was done by the C. J. Peters Company of Cambridge.
On the December cover, we hope to be able to present another character from Ernest's deep-dyed hunting family."
