Norman Rockwell's "The Rookie" goes to auction

The painting appeared on the cover of the March 2, 1957, issue of the Saturday Evening Post. The title is: "The Rookie (Red Sox Locker Room)." Christie's is offering it May 22 with a pre-sale estimate of $20 million to $30 million.
The painting shows pitcher Frank Sullivan, right fielder Jackie Jensen, catcher Sammy White, second baseman Billy Goodman and Hall of Famer Ted Williams.
The anonymous owner acquired it in 1986.
The painting was exhibited at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston in 2005 and '08.
