John Sheridan’s cover of the well-to-do during World War l is striking. I wish I could have seen more of the car (LOVE the “propeller” style wheels)! As an animal lover though, the fur coat kinda makes me cringe. It is beautiful to look at, if only it were faux, right? If only..

With the Rex car ad, I’d never heard of it before. Indeed, when I clicked the link, I’d never heard of those makes either but would love to know more. Regardless of that, I love the ads AND the beautiful logos of the auto’s name they used back then. Today, Ford is about the only company that still uses the original logo.

Being ‘Caught in the Rain’ with the top down–the young lady’s face says it all. LOVE Hampson’s artwork!! Obviously this was a really old car by 1936. He needed a newer car; at least a mid-late ’20s model.

Great ’36 Ford ad. Love the artwork AND the car itself. Beautiful–especially in that bronze color. I saw a restored ’36 Ford (coupe) getting gas just a few weeks ago!

Love this Utz cover from 1950. It’s a miracle the driver didn’t cause an accident here! The detail is incredible. It also has an Alajalov quality to it I really like as well.

The “Backing Out” cover is hilarious. NOTHING to block your view like all of the big, ugly, monsterous trucks/SUV’s we have to deal with today and they STILL had an accident. No sidewalks. The grass goes right out to the pavement. Wow.

Always love Richard Sargent’s covers usually featuring irony. This one has it in spades. Let’s hope the editors of the magazine today do a lot more irony/fun covers. The 21st centuy isn’t exactly fun (okay, it’s terrible) but it’s got more irony than ever!
