Taking it to the house.
Since the big Thanksgiving football bonanza is happening in a couple of days in the U.S., today seems a good time to show you this rare find. It’s a November 1932 issue of Game & Gossip, an art deco-styled magazine with a focus on sport, fashion, humor, and art. Interestingly, bandleader Xavier Cugat, who was also a cartoonist, did a stint as this publication’s cover artist earlier in 1932, but this particular piece was painted by Preston Waldrop, of whom we find no mention anywhere else, ever. Nice work, though. You can see a bit more from Game & Gossip at a Flickr set here. By the way, have the touchdown rules in the NFL evolved into something completely idiotic or what? Just saying.
