Stevan Dohanos

Here’s a name that until tonight was unknown to me – Stevan Dohanos.

Stevan DohanosBut thanks to a blog called  “Printed Pages – Blog about books, authors and printed pages” I have come to know this gentleman as an artist and illustrator best known for his Saturday Evening Post covers, and responsible for several of the Don’t Talk set of World War II propaganda posters.

I know that many of our readers are collectors of magazine advertisements.. and still others are collectors of magazine covers.  Those who specialize in The Saturday Evening Post will certainly know  Stevan Dohanos.  For those who don’t, the above referenced blog and Wikipedia will give you more information about this man and his work.

I’m Tom Murphy and thanks for helping me give Ephemera the encore it deserves.

About Tom Murphy
My name is Tom Murphy and I’m becoming more and more a full time Blogger - trying to master this new and dynamic medium called blogging. Back in the late 1990s I found the Internet and was not sure what it was.. or where it was going. I worked at the time for IBM and we had what was called then PROFS - the Professional Office System. I didn’t know it at the time but that was perhaps my beginning interest in blogging. As I learn more and more about Blogging.. and Wordpress.. and my other passion - Ephemera, I hope to be able to blog about it to my followers here on this blogsite. Stay with me for what I hope will be a fun adventure for us all.

    Hi Tom…I LOVE the artists on Sat Eve Post! Grew up studying them as I became a self taught artist. And I am still learning, only this time it has been via you re ephemera, something I have always loved but never realized it had a name. Thanks for your posts.
