Dong Kingman American Weekly Cover 1961



I've ran across ads for San Francisco and Hong Kong with artwork by Dong Kingman. Here is a picture of a cover he did for a 1961 issue of American Weekly.

Inside, the cover is described as follows: Dong Kingman's cover is sort of a 'San Francisco, with variations.' In this, first of a series he'll be doing on great U. S. cities, he's juggled a few familiar landmarks - Bay Bridge, Telegraph Hill, etc. - to capture the spirit, rather than the geography, of his home town. As far as we're concerned, his artistic license is renewed."

Alas, this is the only issue I have!
