This picture accompanied a large-size advert for the Farnsworth radios and Farnsworth phonograph-radios published in 1946, a copy of which is in our own collection. A hand-written note on a corner of the page indicates that it may have been inserted in the 17 January 1946 issue of the Life. The original painting by Julio de Diego was at the time of publication in the Capehart Collection.

This monochrome picture accompanied a full-page advert for the Steinway piano in the 7 January 1922 issue of The Literary Digest; a copy of this page is in our collection. The original picture was painted by Harvey Dunn for the Steinway Collection (see below).
