That very attractive cover on the October issue of McCall's magazine may have
seemed familiar to you . . . and very rightly so, for the model who posed for the picture is
none other Laura Failey of Kankakee, Ill., niece of Mrs. George Johnson, of Wilson Naylor Cox,
nd of Bruce Failey, all of this city. Laura has visited in Terre Haute frequently and has an
extensive acquaintance here. Laura is an art student in New York city, where she studied at the
Parsons College of Art. She is at present working under Neysa McMein, the famous illustrator,
and the McCall's cover was the work of Miss McMein herself. In addition to posing for Miss
McMein, Laura poses for commercial photographers, and a picture of her was included in a showing
of sport styles which appeared in the June issue of Pictorial Review.
The cover of the McCall's magazine reproduced very faithfully Laura's manifold charms. She has
exceptionally lovely black eyes, very dark hair, and a creamy skin, all of which are depicted in
the picture. - Terre Haute Saturday Spectator, Oct. 10, 1936, page 22. |
