This is the original cover of Good Housekeeping Magazine dated August 1917. A woman in a swimsuit sits at the edge of a diving board.
Artist/Illustrator/Photographer: Coles Phillips
Approximate Size (in inches): 8¼ x 11¾
Condition: Fair. Some staining at top and discoloration at right edge. Normal wear for a 100 year old cover.
This is the cover only . . . not the entire magazine.
Please note: Although we have given a very general grade for condition, please keep in mind that magazine covers suffer much harsher treatment than the rest of the magazine. After years of being handled and tossed around, it is likely that an old cover will show signs of wear including small rips, creases, discoloration/staining, edge chipping, general surface wear, etc. If there is anything more severe, we will note that in the description. It is also helpful to look closely at the picture(s) we have provided above to get a better idea of condition of this cover.
