Herbert Morton Stoops Illustrations 5
This is from another Frank Linderman book, 'Pretty-shield' a biography of an Native American woman from 1932 - dig the pen work - this is from the Time-Life 1991 edition - so there's still a few books in print with Stoops illos., which is cool. Time to do an ad hoc biography:
He served in WWI and started his career after that. Like most top illustrators from the Golden Age, he did it all - ads, magazine illustrations, book illustrations, posters, murals, historical paintings,... He was noted for adventure, western, and historical topics - He had a major association with Blue Book, painting over a 100 covers for them from the mid-30's until his death in 1948. He did several propaganda posters for the military during WWII. He also did much work for the American Legion magazine and illustrated several books for adolescents and books about American Indians.
