A special Thanksgiving number of *Harper's Bazaar*, the New York weekly aimed at women readers, is the subject of this 1895 poster, with its cover drawn by Will H. Bradley (1868-1962). Bradley was one of the leading American graphic designers of the 1890s poster boom, working in bold, flat shapes influenced by Japanese prints and European Art Nouveau. Covers and posters like this helped establish magazine art as a serious field, and the seasonal issue shows how publishers used holiday themes to attract buyers. The record offers few other details, so the design itself is the best place to look.
