✖ Via The New Yorker: “Earth Day” by Frank Viva, April 26, 2010
“When The New Yorker called last year, I was so surprised, I jumped up and hit my head (rather badly) on my desk lamp.” said Frank Viva. “Earth Day” (left) is available on newsstands this week. “It’s my second cover for The New Yorker and this time, I somehow managed to avoid serious injury. Us? We’re celebrating Earth Day on Thursday by taking our bikes to the office.” (source)

✖ Via Golden Age Comic Book Stories: “Earth Love” / Jones Touch, by Jeff Jones from Swank Magazine (May-Nov 1972).

About Jeff Jones: “Jeffrey Catherine Jones (born January 10, 1944 in Atlanta, Georgia) is an American artist whose work is best known from the late 1960s through 2000s. She provided over 150 covers for many different types of books through 1976, as well as venturing into fine art during and after this time.” (Wikipedia). She has an official website but it seems to be down.

I first noticed this artist via This Isn’t Happiness.
