No Binding. Condition: Very Good. ORIGINAL 1930s MAGAZINE ILLUSTRATION SCRAPBOOK — 27 ORIGINAL CUT-OUTS IN CUSTOM BOX An unusual and visually striking original scrapbook of 1930s American magazine illustration, preserving 27 leaves of original magazine cut-outs from the Golden Age of American illustration and scrapbook-making. The collection presents a lively cross-section of commercial illustration from the period, with clean, brightly colored, upbeat imagery drawn from contemporary American magazines. Represented artists include Alan Foster, Robert Fawcett, George de Zayas, Anthony Fraioli, Robert O. Reid, Jorj Harris, and Gaspano "Gus" Ricca, among others. The illustrators represented here worked across such important periodicals as The Saturday Evening Post, Collier's, Holiday, Cosmopolitan, Harper's Bazaar, The New Yorker, Liberty, and Time, as well as advertising and other commercial publications. Particularly notable is the representation of Robert O. Reid, whose distinctive cartoon-like illustrations appeared on Collier's covers and as story illustrations and advertisements during a relatively brief period of professional prominence. Also represented is Gus Ricca, whose work appeared in The New Yorker, Liberty, Time and Collier's before his later career in pulp magazines and comic books. The scrapbook itself is an interesting piece of vernacular collecting and preservation, reflecting the period fascination with clipping, arranging and saving the era's colorful magazine art. The 27 original disbound leaves have been repaired with contemporaneous material. The leaves, together with the original boards, are housed in an unusual custom-made protective box measuring approximately 11 x 14½ inches. A colorful and uncommon survivor documenting both the Golden Age of American commercial illustration and the popular culture of 1930s magazine publishing. Of interest to collectors of American illustration, magazine history, advertising art, graphic arts, ephemera and vintage scrapbooks.…
