Classic Spot Illustrations from the Twenties and Thirties: by James Montgomery Flagg, Gluyas Williams, John Held, Jr., et al
<P>At the beginning of the 20th century, <I>Judge</I> (established in 1881) and <I>Life</I> (1883), together with <I>Puck</I>, were the premier humor magazines in the United States. <I>Puck</I> disappeared in 1918. But, by the 1920s and early '30s, <I>Life</I> and <I>Judge</I> had achieved enormous popularity. Not until the establishment of the <I>New Yorker</I> in 1925 was their position seriously challenged. This huge readership was due primarily to the magazines' cartoons. From politics to domestic bliss, childhood to boardroom, breadline to kick line — no subject was safe from the humorists' pens.<BR>This rich source of more than 700 royalty-free images from the '20s and '30s represents the very best from those legendary magazines. You'll find black-and-white illustrations from Charles Dana Gibson, James Montgomery Flagg, Reginald Bathurst Birch, John Held, Jr., Russell Patterson, A. B. Frost, Rube Goldberg, Art Young, Dr. Seuss, and others.</P>
