Lot 391: Illustrated Bits.

Originally founded as Illustrated Tit-Bits in 1886, this periodical vanished after 1891 only to reappear four years later as Illustrated Bits. The magazine would fold again in 1899. This design, noted as Morrow's first graphic 'hit' in the January 1899 issue of The Poster, is a visual symphony of color and detail, showcasing a girl with all the joy and grace of a prima ballerina traipsing down the street, wrapping the name of the periodical around her flying steps.
