ABSTRACT
Covers of exhibition catalogues seem closely akin to covers of magazines, except that the former may be sportive while the latter are Designed by Elihu Vedder. https://s3-euw1-ap-pe-df-pch-content-public-p.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/9781315056036/18ad3813-8413-4461-b74d-ee89216b4997/content/fig4_IIIc_80.tif"/> condemned to greater seriousness by reason of their longer permancnce. Many of the leading artists of the day have designed wrappers for magazines. The former cover of The Cen- 265 tury was invented by Mr. Stanford White, and redrawn by Mr. Elihu Vedder, and the present cover was devised by Mr. Stanford White; that of the new Scribner's is by Mr. Stanford White; that of the English Illustrated Magazine is by Mr. Walter Crane. Messrs. Abbey and Parsons Designed by Stanford White. https://s3-euw1-ap-pe-df-pch-content-public-p.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/9781315056036/18ad3813-8413-4461-b74d-ee89216b4997/content/fig4_IIIc_81.jpg"/> prepared the cover for the British edition of Harper's — to my mind far more appropriate than the cover of the American edition, a reminiscence of the old Bentley's Miscellany. Mr. Francis Lathrop drew a dignified cover-design for the dead and gone Manhattan; and M. Luc Olivier Merson made a design equally dignified for the equally defunct Paris Illustré. Mr. 266Bertram Goodhue's wrapper for his quarterly Knight Errant, with its vague suggestion of "Childe Roland to the Dark Tower came," is worthy to be compared with the Century Guild Hobby-Horse — also the organ of authors and Designed by Walter Crane. https://s3-euw1-ap-pe-df-pch-content-public-p.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/9781315056036/18ad3813-8413-4461-b74d-ee89216b4997/content/fig4_IIIc_82.jpg"/> artists dissatisfied with their environment and with their epoch. To be noted also are certain of the covers made by Mr. W. H. Bradley for the Chicago Inland, Printer; and not to be omitted 267is the graceful and classic design by Mr. Will H. Low now seen on the Bookbuyer.
