EDITORS COMMENTS
Front Cover of Printers Pie, 1908: A Year of Growth and Cheer The Front Cover of the 1908 edition of Printers Pie, illustrated by the renowned John Hassall, showcases a jovial shopkeeper standing in the doorway of Ye Pie Shop. This image is a delightful continuation of the previous year's cover, featuring the same shop but with the shopkeeper appearing a bit more rotund - a charming metaphor for the increasing size and popularity of the magazine. Published by The Sphere and Tatler in aid of the Printers Pension, Almshouse and Orphan Asylum Corporation, Printers Pie was a charitable endeavor that brought together the leading artists and humorous writers of the day. The magazine's sister publication, Winters Pie, was released each Christmas. John Hassall, a master of illustration, designed the covers for both magazines. His whimsical and intricate style is on full display here, with the shopkeeper wearing checked trousers and a wide apron, holding a sign advertising the magazine. The shop's doorway is adorned with advertising signs, adding to the lively and bustling atmosphere of the scene. The shopkeeper's rotund figure is a testament to the growing success of the magazine, which continued to attract an ever-expanding readership. With contributions from other notable artists such as William Heath Robinson, Lawson Wood, and Walter Emanuel, Printers Pie was a must-read for those seeking a bit of cheer and light-hearted entertainment. This image, captured in 1908, is a delightful snapshot of a bygone era, showcasing the charm and wit of the early 20th century. The Front Cover of Printers Pie, 1908, is a reminder of a time when magazines brought people together, providing a source of joy and camaraderie.
