Maclean’s Cover – November 15, 1938

January 28th, 2010

Design: Eric Aldwinkle
Client: Maclean’s  Magazine

The story seems innocent enough (National Motor Show), but there’s a beautifully eerie tension in this cover illustration by Eric Aldwinkle. Even with seventy years of hindsight, this makes a persuasive case for the glamor and allure of the automobile.

    Love the different colour schemes for each figure! We need more illustration on magazine covers.
