Auction History Result 8y0263 SATURDAY EVENING POST 28x40 advertising poster 1939 Columbia Gem of the Ocean, Fletcher Pratt Date Sold 6/8/2021 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Unfolded Advertising Poster (measures 27 3/4" x 39 3/4" [70 x 101 cm]) (Learn More) The Saturday Evening Post, the national magazine that was similar to Life magazine (which it preceded by over 200 years, because it was first published by Benjamin Franklin in 1728!), but which had more of a literary bent to it, with stories and condensed novels by notable authors, but with many well illustrated articles on current events and pop culture. The covers were always by "name" artists, and legendary artist Norman Rockwell became closely associated with the magazine and did more covers for them than almost anyone. The magazine was printed on a high quality paper stock, while many of its competitors were printed on "pulp" paper, so the issues of this magazine survive better and are of a much better quality. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that Fletcher Pratt was a writer of history, science fiction, and fantasy. He is best known for his works on naval history and the American Civil War, and for fiction (often written with L. Sprague de Camp). Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has a 3" tear at upper right that has been repaired with tape from the back. Other than a few other more minor edge defects the poster is in pretty nice condition!
