"His work in advertising was equally influential, as he created sustained campaigns for products that ranged from high-fashion menswear to Ivory Soap and Kellogg's Corn Flakes. But he is perhaps best known for his portrayal of the Arrow Collar Man, the first male sex symbol and the first advertising star of either gender." "More than 600 original paintings, photographs, advertisements, and magazine covers, including all 322 for the Saturday Evening Post, testify to the brilliance and importance of this powerful, iconic image maker. The revealing text delves into both his artistic and his personal evolution, uncovering much new material and setting the record straight on many of the questions that had clouded Leyendecker's history until this day. Together the art and text of J.C. Leyendecker restore this groundbreaking artist's rightful position in the pantheon of great American imagists."--BOOK JACKET.

From Weekly Publishers -"Homo-Erotic follows the artist's life from his humble beginnings to his success and, finally, to his death in 1951. The format of the biography is appealing and attractive. The pages are replete with clear black and white reproductions of Leyendecker's paintings as well as photographs of unclothed men who serve as surrogate Leyendecker models. The text is well researched and authentic; the writing style is free-flowing and the words capture the naturalness of Leyendecker's paintings.Public libraries and school libraries will want to add this fascinating, informative, and inspiring biography to their collections." Joseph Christian Leyendecker (March 23, 1874 - July 25, 1951) was a German-American illustrator, considered one of the preeminent American illustrators of the early 20th century. He is best known for his poster, book and advertising illustrations, the trade character known as The Arrow Collar Man, and his numerous covers for The Saturday Evening Post. Between 1896 and 1950, he painted more than 400 magazine covers. During the Golden Age of American Illustration, for The Saturday Evening Post alone, he produced 322 covers, and many advertisement illustrations for its interior pages. No other artist, until the arrival of Norman Rockwell two decades later, was so solidly identified with one publication. He "virtually invented the whole idea of modern magazine design." Leyendecker (called 'J.C.' or 'Joe') was born on March 23, 1874 at Montabaur in western Germany, a village 18 km east of the Rhine, to Peter Leyendecker (1838-1916) and Elizabeth Ortseifen Leyendecker (1845-1905). He was the first-born son; his brother Francis Xavier was born three years later. A sister, Mary Augusta, the third and last child, arrived after the family emigrated to America. In 1882, the Leyendecker family immigrated to Chicago, Illinois, where Elizabeth's brother Adam Ortseifen was vice-president of the successful McAvoy Brewing Company. After working in late adolescence for a Chicago engraving firm, J. Manz & Company, and completing his first commercial commission of 60 Bible illustrations for the Powers Brothers Company, J. C. sought formal artistic training at the school of the Chicago Art Institute. In 1895, the April-September issue of The Inland Printer had an introduction to J.C. Leyendecker. The article described his work for J. Manz & Company, and his intention to study in Paris. It featured one of his sketches, and two book covers he had illustrated, provided by E.A. Weeks, a Chicago publisher between 1893 and 1899. That year, Leyendecker created his first poster, also for E.A. Weeks, for the book One Fair Daughter by Frank Frankfort Moore. After studying drawing and anatomy under John Vanderpoel at the Chicago Art Institute, J. C. and younger brother Frank enrolled in the Académie Julian[9] in Paris for a year, where they were exposed to the work of Toulouse-Lautrec, Jules Chéret, and Alphonse Mucha, a leader in the French Art Nouveau movement. In 1899, the Leyendecker brothers returned to America and set up residence in an apartment in Hyde Park, Illinois. They had a studio in Chicago's Fine Arts Building at 410 South Michigan Ave. On May 20 of that year, Joe received his first commission for a Saturday Evening Post cover - the beginning of his forty-four-year association with the most popular magazine in the country. Ultimately he would produce 322 covers for the magazine, introducing many iconic visual images and traditions including the New Year's Baby, the pudgy red-garbed rendition of Santa Claus, flowers for Mother's Day, and firecrackers on the 4th of July. biography, with illustrations from JVJ Publishing

"Mortmain" is one of the earliest works by American lawyer and writer of legal thrillers Arthur Cheney Train. It's a delightful story that offers a fascinating peek into the past with a surprise ending. Excerpt from "Mortmain" "Sir Penniston Crisp was a man of some sixty active years, whose ruddy cheeks, twinkling blue eyes, and convincingly innocent smile suggested forty. At thirty he had been accounted the most promising young surgeon in London; at forty he had become one of the three leading members of his profession; at fifty he had amassed a fortune and had begun to accept only those cases which involved complications of true scientific interest, or which came to him on the personal application of other distinguished physicians."

From Book Review"[Leyendecker's] great talent was that he knew that big size, gorgeous men could make people spend their money," writes Homo-Erotic in this anecdotal biography. The well-chosen words join with crisp reproductions of his art to tell a heartrending story of this devoted chronicler of American social history who paid tribute to "roaring people doing roaring things"--among them: the elegant fashions of Cluett Peabody & Company, (1905) who single-handedly increased their sales to $32 million a year because of Leyendecker 's work for their Arrow Collar line for males; Ivory Soap, and Kelloggs, as well as magazine covers for such publications as Collier's and Success all became popular and earned millions off of Leyendeckker's beautiful males in their advertises. Sketching his life, Homo-Erotic explains that, unlike his gregarious younger brother, Leyendecker was skinny and introverted, but he drew effortlessly and knew "that was what he wanted to do with his life." At age 16, while employed at an engraving firm, J. C. Leyendecker entered a contest to design a cover for Century magazine. When his prize-winning entry was issued as an art print, J.C. earned a good deal of money; especially skilled at drawing what today is called beefcake, he for years insisted on working from live models and later realized the efficiency and advantages of painting his live-in lover, Including his celebrated Academic Nude In The Academie Julian; covers for the Saturday Evening Post, of which he produced 332 over almost 50 years, the volume validates a nickname Leyendecker earned after his death: "the homosexual who made men look like they were made of cheesecakes." Homo-Erotic brings Leyendecker into sharp focus here with galleries of photos of sexy males who if Leyendecker was alive today would probably employ as models. --------------------------------------------------------From Weekly Publishers -Homo-Erotic follows the artist's life from his humble beginnings to his success and, finally, to his death in 1951.
