This is an original cover by Edward Penfield (1866 –1925).  He was one of the best American illustrators from the Golden Age of American Illustration.  He is considered the father of the American poster. A precocious talent, he was still a student at the Art Students League under the tutelage of George deForest Brush when his work in a school exhibition was seen by the art editor of  Harper’s magazine. Penfield was offered a staff job in the art department and thrived on the on-the-job training. When a poster deadline came due, Penfield volunteered to fill the breach and overnight produced the first of a long series of distinctive posters that made Penfield’s reputation.  He did hundreds of magazine covers and this is a great image of WWI mounted US Calvary officier with his troops.  This is a cover only - not the whole magazine.  Aprox Size is 11 x 15 inches and would look framed or part of your collection.
