His Arrow Collar ads epitomized the Great Gatsby look, while his 322 Saturday Evening Post covers, painted between 1899 and 1943, set the style for the magazine and for the era. Here, for the first time, the art of J. C. Leyendecker is fully explored in a well-researched and well-documented study. Over 200 black and white illustrations include reproductions of all facets of his art, and 64 pages in full color offer a comprehensive gallery of Leyendecker at his most memorable.For 32 years this was the one and only book compiling Leyendecker’s amazing career.

Leyendecker: American Imagist in 2008 with entirely different text and somewhat different collected art.
