I like the drawings of John Held, Jr. He helped to define the look of the flapper.

Oh, Margy! -- August 21, 2024

Birmingham Age-Herald, 17-August-1924

I found a Time-Life series of books about decades in the Anza Branch Library. The book about the 1920s was my favorite. I particularly liked the drawings done by John Held, Jr. He defined the appearance of flappers. This book was also where I learned about Clara Bow.

F Scott Fitzgerald engaged Held to illustrate the covers of several of his books.
