Hundreds, probably thousands of books...aimed at the mass market, which today is no doubt into digital everything, TV soaps or junk programing....but hey, it's our entertainment culture. And as said before, a big venue for 'needy' artists, actors, writers and creative folks. Thanks again, cheers, and hopefully a relaxing Easter weekend.charlie allennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-21329613704525169282010-04-01T19:16:16.731-04:002010-04-01T19:16:16.731-04:00Thanks guys - your comments made it all worthwhile...Thanks guys - your comments made it all worthwhile. Be sure to visit my friend Uilke's (aka UK Vintage) Flickr collection - without his generosity I wouldn't have been able to "illustrate" the text so effectively.

Yet, the cover illustrations are, in many cases, well thought out esthetically, dramatically lit, and skillfully rendered with as much care and talent as a hard bound classic novel in the finest collections. I would venture to say that the quality of the illustration of many, were on the same level as the slick woman's magazine covers and editorial stories of the day. In spite of today's changed market, I can't help but think that human nature still responds to illustrations in advertising, magazines and books, as well as fine art paintings that are traditionally well designed and rendered, just as it always has. Perhaps, the cart is now leading the horse.<br /><br />Tom WatsonTomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13237565169344311948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-49937894885499088952010-04-01T16:28:14.360-04:002010-04-01T16:28:14.360-04:00Hi Leif,
