Strong definitive image of Scrooge.  It has the purity of emotional joy and elation which is infectious to the readership.

Beautiful cover that was tough for me to part with. But I am so happy that we were able to make a trade and that the cover art ended up in your wonderful collection. Congrats Antonio.
