Nat Shilkret & the Victor Orch. - Some Sweet Day, Fox Trot from the movie "Children of the Ritz" (Nat Shilkrtet /Lew Pollack) with vocal refrain, Victor 1929 (USA) NOTE: Most of pictures in the slideshow are the drawings by the famous American illustrator and entrepreneur of the Roaring Twenties, J.C. Leyendecker. He painted strong, athletic, men and lithe, feminine, women with equal ease. He created long-running characters like Saturday Evening Post babies and the Arrow collar man. He painted 322 covers for the Saturday Evening Post, also painted for American Weekly, Collier's, Popular Magazine, Century Illustrated, Ladies' Home Journal, ads for Kuppenheimer, Interwoven socks, Chesterfield (utilizing the same fade-away technique as friend, Coles Phillips), Kellogg's, Ivory, Pierce Arrow. He so defined an era of fashion in the early 20th Century that Richard Amsel paid homage to him in his poster art for The Sting. Leyendecker virtually invented the whole idea of modern magazine design. Leyendecker never married and lived with another man, Charles Beach, for much of his adult life, who is assumed to have been his lover and who was the original model of the famous Arrow Collar Man.
