EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past with this cover design from the Do It Yourself magazine's June 1966 issue. The vintage image, created by Terry Parker, invites us to embark on a home improvement project with a sense of excitement and optimism. The scene takes place in a quintessential 1960s driveway, where a man in work clothes confidently inspects an inspection pit. Surrounded by the lush green grass and the warm, inviting glow of the sun, he appears ready to tackle any challenge that comes his way. The cover artfully combines various textures and materials, from the rough bricks of the pit to the smooth wooden handles of the spade and wheelbarrow. The man's worn work boots and the worn-out jeans add to the authenticity of the scene, making it a relatable and engaging image for the DIY enthusiast. The June 1966 issue of Do It Yourself magazine was a testament to the spirit of self-sufficiency and resourcefulness that defined the 1960s. This cover design encapsulates the essence of that era, inviting readers to roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty as they worked on their homes and gardens. With its charming retro aesthetic and timeless appeal, this cover design continues to inspire and delight, transporting us back to a simpler time when DIY projects were a source of pride and joy.
