March 1947 Outdoor Life Cover Print

Coonhounds were a common subject on Outdoor Life’s winter covers in the 1940s and 1950s, a clear indication of just how popular raccoon hunting used to be. In this March 1947 cover, painted by Ralph Crosby Smith, three hunters gather round the truck as five Treeing Walker Coonhounds spill out of the homemade dog box and into the snow.
