MagazineArt.org During the latter half of the 19th century and the early part of the 20th, magazine-cover illustrators had remarkable influence in the world. Many people are familiar with the names Norman Rockwell and Maxfield Parish, but thousands of lesser-known artists created magazine cover art, most of it long forgotten. Created by a group of people who love the genre, this ever-expanding site highlights magazines from a time when they "showed us how to dress, how to act, what to read, which way to vote, and how to think about ourselves, literature, science, art, and the rest of the world." This visual display includes collections of mass monthlies, such as Everybody's Magazine and fiction pulp like Adventure, a magazine that featured stories ranging from danger to romance.
