Saturday, April 29, 1922. The Auctioneer


The Saturday magazines were out, of course.  Country Gentleman had a Norman Rockwell on its cover, of an auctioneer.  A better Rockwell was on the cover of the Saturday Evening Post, showing a thin young man lifting weights while looking at a photo of a body builder.

A protest took place in Washington D.C. featuring children, hoping for the release of those imprisoned due to the Sedition Act.


In China, warlord Zhang Suolin began a campaign that would ultimately see him rise to power in China, fall, and then lead to his assassination.
