"Carqueville's large body of posters for Philadelphia-based Lippincott's
magazine
was completed before he left his native Chicago, where he had
a long productive career as a lithographer, designer and painter.
Penfield was, no doubt, his main influence. That inspiration is clearly
in place in this design for the December 1894 issue, with a solitary
stroller making his way through a wintery expanse with a copy of Lippincott's
securely tucked into his coat pocket, ready for perusal upon arriving
at cozier climes.
(Rennert, PAI-XXVIII, 194)
Lippincott's Monthly Magazine was a 19th century literary magazine
published in Philadelphia from 1868 to 1915, when it relocated to
New York to become McBride's Magazine. It merged with Scribner's Magazine
in 1916. Lippincott's published original works, general articles,
and literary criticism. It is indexed in the Reader's Guide Retrospective
database, and the full-text of many issues are available online from
Project Gutenberg, and in various commercial databases such as the
American Periodicals Series from Proquest.
