Date Sold 6/10/2014 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Paperbacked Magazine Cover (measures 8 1/2" x 10 3/4" [22 x 27 cm]) (Learn More) Life, the magazine first published in 1883 (not to be confused with the Life Magazine of 1936 on). It was conceived as a Puck-like magazine, and was very popular until 1925, when The New Yorker was published, and many of the top writers and artists from Life moved to the new magazine. Many famous artists and writers got their start in this first Life Magazine, including Norman Rockwell and Robert Ripley, among many others. In 1936, the publisher of Time purchased the name only from the former publisher, and then ended the magazine, and began publishing the new Life that same year, and it ceased regular publication in 1976, although it continued with special issues for many years (there is no relationship between the two magazines other than the title). Artist: Paul Goold Important Added Info: Note that this is solely the cover of the magazine and that it has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. Condition: good to very good. Prior to paperbacking, the magazine cover had smudges, darkening, and minor wear around the edges and in the background areas. Overall, the magazine cover was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The restorer backed the magazine cover "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above. Learn More about condition grades
