About the Item

Story illustration for “Centennial” by James A. Michener for Ladies’ Home Journal, published September 1974. The full caption reads: “As Levi and Elly Zendt began their dangerous journey West, they also began their marriage. If they lacked knowledge, they had something better — youth and courage and a growing love that made them strong. The Journal describes the story: “In Centennial, James A. Michener celebrates America with a vivid, human saga about the early West. This excerpt, entitled ‘The Wagon and the Elephant,’ is a love story, an adventure story — the kind of story you will not soon forget.” Medium: Oil and Pencil on Canvas Date: 1974 Signature: Signed Lower Right Dimensions: 18.00" x 26.00"
