"After Thanksgiving dinner, all the menfolk claimed to be too stuffed to move, particularly toward the pile of dirty dishes in the kitchen. Occasionally, however, with the last day of deer season drawing near, they would draw upon their last reserves of energy and force themselves to go hunting one more time. Somebody had to do it." — Pat McManus
Thanksgiving
Original limited-edition 1988 calendar art by Gary Williams. Framed with a 1" wide black mat for a finish size of 11" x 14". The back of the illustration has calendar date boxes with entries from a journal Pat kept as a 10-year-old in their original sequence. This was done to help scholars gain insight into the thought and motivation processes of the young Pat McManus, and also because the boxes seemed so empty.
