I've got a handful of Reader's Digest magazines from the late 40's and early 50's. This week we'll look at some of the artists who regularly did work for the magazine during that period. These pieces were signed Blattner, and since RD chose not to include credit lines for its illustrators, for now Blattner has no first name.

It could easily be today's "New Yorker" cover: nice to see that some work stand the test of time!
Some really strong draughtsmanship on display . One of my fave contributors to the 'Digest' was David Stone Martin. His stuff's always inspirational.
Looking forward to the rest of the week.
René - I agree! Even without a change of clothing styles, one could imagine this being done today by someone like Seth.
Dom - I was not aware David Stone Martin did any work for Reader's Digest - now you've forced me to hunt down more back issues! ebay, here I come...
