I recently read that the Saturday Evening Post is planning a comeback. There is some redesigning planned beginning with this year’s July/August issue. This magazine was considered one of the top publications for art and fiction.
The Post had its’ early beginnings as a newspaper and later the content changed toward entertainment and fiction. Its popularity grew over the years and it featured such artists as J. C. Leyendecker, Norman Rockwell, N.C. Wyeth and others.
While the industry experts hope that this will be a publication to own, collect and read, the Post will not be ignoring all things digital. There is a web site that will have updates and a presence on social-networking sites. The site will offer art, blogs, health coverage and other content. The new redesign will include art, health, commentary by Charles Osgood, poetry by Ray Bradbury and fiction by John Hemmingway, Ernest Hemmingway's grandson.

I'm looking forward to the Saturday Evening Post comback.
