Surprised by MAXFIELD PARRISH


Usually when perusing vintage magazines at an antique store I'm skimming so fast that most of the magazine is a blur. Only if I come upon something that ignites a visual spark do I slow up. Well, lucky me! When I opened this February 1921 issue of The People's Home Journal (which has a wonderful "all hail comrades!" sound to it) I was stunned by what I saw. A Maxfield Parrish on the inside back cover. This immediately went into my "I'm not leaving the store without this one!" stack.
