Southwestern Telephone News, April 1931
Ephemera September 6th. 2008, 6:08am
A more professional website would save this post for next April, but… you know. As I’ve said before, Southwestern Telephone News had some great covers! The period from the late ’20s through the early ’30s featured some fabulous art-deco illustrations, including this issue from April, 1931.
Unfortunately, the subject of many of the covers is not related to telephony in any way. In fact, the magazine as a whole featured less telephone-related content than most of the other regional Bell employee mags. Several of these covers appear to be from the same hand, and I’d appreciate hearing from anyone who can identify the artist. Here’s the large version and huge version.
