Step back into mid-century history with this beautifully bound hardcover volume containing a consecutive three-month run of weekly LIFE magazines from April to June 1950. The magazines are housed in a sturdy, vibrant red cloth library binding featuring gilded spine lettering that crisply denotes the specific months and year. This collection preserves exceptional historic cover stories and photojournalism from the era, including the April 3 cover highlighting young actors Iris Mann and David Cole in "The Innocents," a definitive close-up feature on General Dwight D. Eisenhower from April 17, and the iconic May 8 cover showcasing baseball legend Jackie Robinson. It also includes the exclusive "A King's Story" feature with the Duke and Duchess of Windsor from May 22, and showcases a treasure trove of vintage mid-century marketing, concluding with a classic "Thirst, too, seeks quality" full-page Coca-Cola advertisement on the final back cover.
