Aprox Size: 11 x 15 inches Herbert Andrew Paus was a famous American illustrator who was inducted into the Society of Illustrators Hall of Fame in 2005. Herbert Paus was a native of Minneapolis and got his first job as a cartoonist for the St. Paul Pioneer Press. Eventually, he moved to New York where he became a freelance illustrator. Paus had a strong sense of design, which was ideally suited to posters. He was a member of the Government?s committee on pictorial publicity during World War I, and painted many effective posters to support the war effort. Some of the greatest WWI magazine covers were done by Paus for Collier?s magazine. His approach was to use vivid color and was carried over into his magazine illustrations and cover designs for such magazines as Woman?s Home Companion, American Magazine, The Youth?s Companion and Collier?s. Paus also painted for such advertisers as Hart, Schaffner & Marx, Goodyear, General Motors, Certain-teed, and Victor Records, and from 1927 to 1931, was under exclusive contract to do all of the spectacular covers for Popular Science Monthly.
