THE AMERICAN WEEKLY, COVERS FROM THE 1950'S

Your editor thinks that The American Weekly had some of the best illustrated covers around...click on the photo to see just one example...oh for the days of the old drive-in!

For those who don't know, The American Weekly was a Sunday newspaper supplement published by the Hearst Corporation from November 1, 1896, until 1966.

Check out this amazing collection of covers from the 1950's--assembled into a neat Flickr album by Erik Johnson--click here

    Too bad there isn't a collection scan for every issue they published.

    Many of their past issues are available online, scanned in their entirety. I'll post the links when time permits.
