1994: Volume 9, Number 4
Cover Art
Tom Leamon, President of the Atlantic Coast Chapter of the League painted the unique portrait that adorns the front cover of this issue and captioned it himself this way: "It is a literal portrait of [Eugene Jacques] Bullard in an 'expressionist' setting against the background of the French Tricolor. I attempt to evoke Bullard's combat and post-war history as well as to suggest across the top: his survival skills suggested by the boxer's arm and drum set emblazoned with the period-type title of his post-war jazz band. The monkey Bullard flew with is "close to his heart," playing with the ephemeral fame of his Croix de Guerre decoration. His grim time in the trenches is noted also."
