Fourth of July: Saturday Evening Post Covers

Happy Fourth of July to all of my American friends and fans!  In honour of this day, DAF presents a collection of Fourth of July covers from one of America’s most enduring magazines – The Saturday Evening Post. Most of these images were created by J.C. Leyendecker but there are a few others, including the very first Fourth of July themed covers by Guernsey Moore in 1900 and J.J. Gould in 1903.  The magazine seems to have abandoned the idea after 1953 except for the most recent cover by Eric Bowman in 2009.

Have a great holiday everyone!
