They are #NY1 - #NY5. During the first decades of the past century, publishing evolved into America's most glamorous business. The artists whose illustrations delighted millions of readers each week became celebrities themselves, predating the Hollywood movie stars. J.C. Leyendecker was one of the nation's most prominent and sought-after illustrators during this period. For many decades, Leyendecker's art graced the cover of "The Saturday Evening Post." He is credited with the idea of using a baby to represent the New Year and his good-natured characters strutting across the pages of the magazine inspired Norman Rockwell in his narrative illustrations for the "Post." But he is best known for establishing the prototype of the American male with his "Arrow Collar Man" - the square-jawed, aloof, unconquerable gentleman who, for decades, became the symbol of what manhood should be. The style & format of these cards are just simply BEAUTIFUL! The classic art might be over 80 years old, but the images are timeless. The classic LEYENDECKER style has shaped the minds of Americans for years. The images are from past covers of vintage "SATURDAY EVENING POST" magazines. The backs of these cards are really something else. The text used is extensive on the history of the Artist himself. Winner agrees to send payment within 7 days. Thank you for the business!
