You can learn more about these artists at American Art Archives!

We try to take extra care scanning the most interesting ads and including all stories and authors featured in a magazine. Since this takes time, we can only list a limited amount of items each week. We have a huge archive and chances are, we have ads and story illustrations by the illustrator you are looking for.

Help us decide what to list next! Feel free to e-mail us with your list of ads, illustrators, authors, or themes you are looking for. We will be happy to list them on ebay.

Specifications
Approximate size is 10.5 x 13.5 inches. Much of this issue would be perfect for framing.
Condition Note
It's rather difficult to get the color and the contrast of the original in a scan AND preserve any flaws, which tend to get muted, or mostly show only on the very edges (which gets cropped) so this text will describe flaws, if any.

Pages 107-108, 71-72, 67-68 are missing. Cover has handling wear including edge tears and creasing; mailing label. Some of the pages in back have light moisture marks. Overall in pretty good shape with the usual blemishes as would be expected from materials this old; this may include: page tanning, especially at edges, small tears, corner bumps, some slight cover soiling and spine wear, etc., but not bad. Auctioned as is.

Who would like it?
A vintage piece not only captures a time and place, but makes a great asset for the historian, teacher, decorator, collector.

As a gift, individual pages and ads would look great matted and framed, spicing up any room: home, store, dorm, office, school, etc.

Who am I
I'm currently archiving ads and artist for American Art Archives. These exceptional collectibles were "rescued." They're now ready to find permanent homes!

Don't Wait Till The Last Minute To Shop For Holidays And Special Occasions!
"But the noble man makes noble plans, and by noble deeds he stands." Isaiah 32:8

*Why collect illustration art? The illustration art found in magazines, books, etc., provides a  real-time look at the past. It shows how life was lived: what constituted beauty, heroism, relationships, loss, ethics, spirituality, fun -- you name it. You can learn more from owning and studying a publication from decades past than you ever could by reading a history book or listening to a classroom lecture. As a collector, I can attest that collecting illustration art has been a constant education, not just in the art itself, but also in the times when that art was published. So, for as little as the price of a pizza, you can own a piece of history!
