EDITORS COMMENTS
This front cover of Printers Pie, published in 1914, showcases a delightful illustration by the renowned artist John Hassall. The image depicts a merry gathering of Hassall's characteristic medieval or Elizabethan figures as they pay a visit to a baker for a colossal pie. The Printers Pie was a charitable venture, published by The Sphere and Tatler, with the proceeds going towards supporting printers in need. The magazine, which was edited by W. Hugh Spottiswoode, was a sister publication to Winters Pie, which was released each Christmas. The pages of both publications were graced with contributions from some of the leading artists and humorous writers of the day, including Hassall himself, William Heath Robinson, Lawson Wood, and Walter Emanuel. The cover illustration by Hassall perfectly encapsulates the spirit of camaraderie and joy that defined the Printers Pie. The baker, with a proud and satisfied expression, presents his enormous pie to the group, who eagerly anticipate the feast ahead. The intricate details of their clothing and the warm glow of the bakery's fireplace add to the cozy and inviting atmosphere. This front cover is a testament to the creativity and generosity of the artists and publishers involved, who came together to raise funds for a worthy cause. The Printers Pie remains an enduring symbol of the power of community and the joy of sharing a good meal.
