Ladies' Home Journal (1931-37)

Between 1931 and 1937, Harry illustrated 33 stories for Ladies’ Home Journal (LHJ).  LHJ was owned by Curtis Publishing (Saturday Evening Post), and the production values were higher than for The Post (or Collier’s).  Among other things, LHJ provided a wonderful platform for women authors to gain publication and name recognition.  I find Harry’s LHJ illustrations interesting because they have a softer, more romantic feel to them when compared to other work he did during the period.  Below are six representative one-page illustrations that Harry did for LHJ.  I’ve removed the story text for a cleaner appearance

March 1932 - Nouveau Pauvre
February 1933 - The Flaming Gahagans
December 1933 - Paris Soir
August 1934 - No Other November
September 1934 - Madame Pagliacci
July 1937 - Courage, page 2
