‘In addition to occasionally creating cover art for other magazines, like Popular Mechanics, Arthur C. Bade was a staff illustrator for Science and Mechanics magazine from 1944 to 1955. Science and Mechanics1, according to Resource Books, was a “popular late 1940s and 1950s magazine that provided information on interesting technological do-it-yourself projects as well as news on “cutting-edge” scientific developments. The magazine usually had bright illustrated covers that contained futuristic and sometimes imaginary images that reflected the popular optimism of the time.” Prior to his time at that magazine, Bade’s art graced a number of magazine covers during the 1930s, including at least two 1933 covers of Better Homes & Gardens magazine. These are generally in a different style and color palette (more “cool” colors like green, and fewer “warm” colors) than his later covers for technologically-focused magazines.’ https://fragmentsintime.substack.com/p/ rthur-c-bade

https://openvalley.org/items/show/1098 https://cdn.knightlab.com: ‘It's likely that Cheney's painting depicts the Virginia Canyon Road near Idaho Springs, Colorado, also known as the "Oh My God Highway" for its hairpin turns and precipitous cliffs. It had been created in the 1800s to access dozens of gold mines in the area; three of those mine shafts (and their tailings) can be seen in an idealized red. Mountains emerge in the distance, creating the perspective of a viewer standing upon a hill overlooking the landscape. The addition of roads throughout the mountain dates to a time when transportation was becoming a vital part of American society. ... Born in Brookline, MA, Cheney attended Harvard University, where he trained with the Harvard ROTC. During 1918-19 he enlisted as a pilot specializing in aerial navigation, a background that seems to have influenced his art’s sometimes creative vantage points. Most of Cheney’s work was in lithography, often of western landscapes. ...'
