Richard Henry Little (R.H.L.) took over the column after Taylors death, and the Chicago Tribune began producing an annual book of excerpts in 1924. These were popular and collectible in their time, so many homes had these in their book collections.Cover Illustration Boris ArtzybasheffBoris Mikhailovich Artzybasheff (Russian: Бори́с Миха́йлович Арцыба́шев, 25 May 1899, Kharkiv, Russian Empire – 16 July 1965) was a Russian illustrator active in the United States, notable for his strongly worked and often surreal designs.Life and careerArtzybasheff was born in Kharkiv, son of the author Mikhail Artsybashev. He is said to have fought as a White Russian. During 1919 he arrived in New York City, where he worked in an engraving shop.His earliest work appeared in 1922 as illustrations for Verotchkas Tales and The Undertakers Garland. A number of other book illustrations followed during the 1920s. Dhan Gopal Mukerjis Gay Neck, the Story of a Pigeon, with his illustrations, was awarded the Newbery Medal in 1928. His book Seven Simeons was a Caldecott Honor Book in 1938. Over the course of his career, he illustrated some 50 books, several of which he wrote, most notably As I See.During his lifetime, however, Artzybasheff was probably known best for his magazine art. He illustrated the major American magazines Life, Fortune, and Time.) He painted 219 Time covers from 1942 to 1966, including portraits of Louis Armstrong (21 February 1949) and Dave Brubeck (8 November 1954). Other illustrators of Time covers during this period, which has been called the golden age of Time covers, included Robert Vickrey, James Ormsbee Chapin, Bernard Safran and Boris Chaliapin.During World War II, he also served an expert advisor to the U.S. Department of State, Psychological Warfare Branch.After 1940, he devoted himself to commercial art, including advertisements for Xerox, Shell Oil, Pan Am, Casco Power Tools, Alcoa Steamship lines, Parke-Davis, Avco Manufacturing, Scotch Tape, Wickwire Spencer Steel Company, Vultee Aircraft, World Airways, and Parker Pens.His graphic style is striking. In commercial work he explored grotesque experiments in anthropomorphism, where toiling machines displayed distinctly human attributes. Conversely, one of his works shows Buckminster Fullers head in the form of Fullers geodesic structure. In his personal work, he explored the depiction of vivid and extreme ranges of human psychology and emotion.His papers are collected at Syracuse University.Source: Wikipedia Shipping Shipping cost:We use a shipping calculator and offer USPS and UPS shipping rates.
