Stunning magazine covers, thanks. Congratulations on reaching 100 posts.
Joe and Jacqueline - Thanks so much for the comments. I don't know what the next 100 (yikes) will bring, but hope you will continue to visit, comment and enjoy.
Hi....Grats on making 100 posts, can't wait to see the next 100 and more. The magazine covers are awesome...amazing colors and artwork. Your blog is overflowing with info. and very enjoyable.
Greatsuebob, Thanks for the comments - much appreciated. Yes the covers are a lot of fun. Of course you should see what they look like in person - 75 years old and full of rips, tears, water stains, vermin munching, etc. So each goes under the Photoshop knife for a nip and tuck - trying to make them a bit more like how they might have appeared when you went down to the newsstand to pick up a copy.
Those covers are beautiful and the
stories enticing - Clara Bow shops
for a baby, Olive Borden repents
her folly - I want to read those stories!!!!
