Friend Farmer's Funny Folk by John Held Jr., 1921


From THE DESIGNER and The Woman's Magazine, July 1921.

John Held Jr. is more famous for capturing the spirit of the 1920s in his Flapper illustrations (one of which is the signature image for the next paper doll convention in Indianapolis--see the ad on this page).

To my eyes, Held's animals have the same joyful antic energy and vivid character as his Flappers.
