<strong>Fred Ludekens</strong> (1900–1982) was an American artist and illustrator. He was born in Hueneme, California on May 13, 1900, and grew up in California. He moved to San Francisco at the age of 20. Although he had no formal training in art, he found work as a billboard painter. He joined the advertising agency of Lord & Thomas in 1931, and transferred to the company's New York City office in 1939. He returned to San Francisco in 1945, and remained there until his death. Ludekens worked in a variety of media, often depicting rural scenes such as fruit ranches, coastal scenes, and the Indians of the Southwest. He produced story, article and cover illustrations for magazines such as <em>The Saturday Evening Post</em>, <em>The American Magazine</em>, <em>Good Housekeeping</em>, <em>The Country Gentleman</em>, Fortuneand <em>True</em>. During the 1950s he produced a series of paintings to be used in advertisements for the Weyerhaeuser Timber Company. These paintings were of wildlife scenes as well as some depicting famous foresters such as Aldo Leopold and William B. Greeley. He also illustrated many books over the course of his life, and was a member of the founding faculty for the Famous Artists School.<br /><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Ludekens" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Ludekens</a><br /><br /><br />For more examples of Ludeken's work, see:<br /><br /><a href="http://todaysinspiration.blogspot.com/2009/06/fred-ludekens-close-up.html" target="_blank">http://todaysinspiration.blogspot.com/2009/06/fred-ludekens-close-up.html</a>

Magazine Publishers of America public service advertisement; "By His Deeds...Measure Yours"
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Public service advertisement urging total and active support of the war effort by the civilian population by directly tying such efforts to the life and death struggles of the military. The advertisement is striking in its use of religious imagery comparing the soldier's sacrifice to Christ's: it depicts a dead soldier whose head is wrapped in barbed wire, recalling Christ's crown of thorns, and a fence post in the shape of a cross.

<strong>John Philip Falter</strong> (1910-1982) was an American artist best known for his many cover paintings for<em> The Saturday Evening Post</em>.
<p>Falter received a major break with his first commission from <em>Liberty Magazine</em> Falter soon discovered that there was much more money to be made in advertising than in other fields of illustration. By 1938, he had acquired several advertising clients including Gulf Oil, Four Roses Whiskey, Arrow Shirts and Pall Mall cigarettes. Falter's work appeared in major national magazines.</p>
<p>In 1943, he enlisted in the Navy, where his talents were applied to the American war effort to spur on recruiting drives. Falter designed over 300 recruiting posters. One popular Falter poster dealt with the loose-lips-sink-ships theme. It showed a broad-shouldered Navy man with the caption, "If you tell where he's going, he may never get there." During this period, he also completed both a series of recruiting posters for the women's Navy, or WAVES, and a series depicting 12 Medal of Honor winners for <em>Esquire</em>.</p>
Falter's first <em>Saturday Evening Post</em> cover, a portrait of the magazine's founder, Benjamin Franklin, is dated September 1, 1943. That cover began a 25-year relationship with the <em>Post</em>, during which Falter produced over 120 covers for the magazine until the editors changed its cover format from illustrations to photographs.<br /><br /><br />
