Disclose Notes: Fun Fact: The little hats were each a separate piece of art and were arranged in a "just so" pattern by Blechman, though one fell off and the art director feared Blechman's reaction if it was not found. It was. (paraphrased from remarks by Arnold Roth @ Society of Illustrators, NYC, March 8, 2013).
