"
An appealing collection of eleven original issues of The Saturday Evening Post, including dated examples from January to May 1958. Their colourful illustrated covers capture the humour, fashions and everyday surroundings of mid-century America, from family life and office friendships to weddings, neighbourhood shops and city apartments. Visible artist signatures include Kurt Ard, George Hughes, Amos Sewell, Doug Prince, John Falter, Constantin Alajálov, Thornton Utz and Jan Balet, offering a varied selection of period illustration.
Cover-advertised features introduce an engaging cross-section of contemporary entertainment, sport and public affairs, with names including Alec Guinness, Ed Sullivan, Vic Damone, Bing Crosby, Stan Musial, Jack Dempsey, and Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. Other subjects range from art and medicine to religion, civil rights and consumer fraud. Together, these magazines offer collectors and researchers a substantial resource for exploring the personalities, interests and visual culture of the late 1950s.
Offered together as an eleven-issue collection, the magazines retain their original illustrated paper covers and display varying age toning, spotting, creasing, edge wear and small tears, with some wear around the stapled spines. The full page colour automotive advertising in these editions is truly spectacular! The cover artwork remains colourful and attractive, as photographed. A rewarding collection for enthusiasts of vintage American magazines, illustration, entertainment history and nostalgic mid-century design."
General wear to covers, some minor insect damage etc otherwise all copies present as complete (not raided for pictures!) and in very good condition. Please study photos to further understand condition.
