The Saturday Evening Post is Back

We just received notice that the stalwart Saturday Evening Post is back! And in keeping with its past the first issue is illustrated. Look for it on the newsstand or online.

For those of you not around at the time or have no idea what we’re talking about The Saturday Evening Post was an illustrator’s dream, they relied solely on iconic illustrations to tell a story and grab a reader’s attention.  In fact Norman Rockwell did 317 covers for The Post—some of the most memorable covers in illustration history.

Does this mean a renaissance for illustrated covers? We certainly hope so.

And who gets the lead in reviving this classic magazine, none other than Jody Hewgill!
