I've had a bit of free time this week and have spent some of it crawling through the dark recesses of the internet. Imagine my surprise when a Google Image Search turned up this
Saturday Evening Post magazine cover. The artist is Ellen Pyle and from looking at the
contents listing the art doesn't relate to any particular story. I just keep thinking about how women playing team sports is portrayed as a bit unorthodox during the 1940s in
A League of their Own, but here we have an attractive woman playing hockey in 1927. It turns out
Women in Sports is actually a recurring theme in the Post's cover art that began in 1923.
You can order prints of The Saturday Evening Post that are ready to frame from Curtis Publishing. I'm not sure where I'd hang it, but if I can think of the right spot I might have to acquire this. Would filling the space between my kitchen cabinets and ceiling with the Post sports art be strange?
