EDITORS COMMENTS
This cover design by renowned English artist Cecil Aldin, titled "Puss Puss," was created for the Letter Book Series in 1921. The image showcases a charming white kitten in a playful moment as it licks its paw. The design is a quintessential representation of the 1920s, a decade known for its affection for all things feline. Cecil Aldin (1874-1935) was a prolific illustrator and painter, best known for his animal paintings and caricatures. His works often depicted animals in humorous and endearing situations, making him a favorite among collectors and enthusiasts. The Letter Book Series, published by Methuen & Co. Ltd., featured beautiful illustrations like this one as covers for their various publications. The white kitten in the design is a symbol of innocence and purity, adding to the overall appeal of the cover. The artist's masterful use of shading and detail brings the kitten to life, making it seem as if it could leap off the page. The muted colors and simple background further emphasize the kitten's cuteness and make it a standout among other cover designs of the time. This cover design by Cecil Aldin, with its adorable white kitten, is a testament to the artist's talent and the enduring appeal of cats. It is a delightful reminder of the past and a beautiful addition to any collection of vintage illustrations or cat-themed memorabilia.
