Scott Fitzgerald, Oren Arnold, Sholem Aleichem, Ernest Hemingway: Two of this quartet are obviously giants of American literature; the other two had a substantial readership during their heyday. Of these latter two, Aleichem is moderately known beyond the sphere of those who read Yiddish due to the success of the Broadway musical Fiddler on the Roof based on his work. Though Hemingway was a Nobel laureate and a world famous celebrity, he spent most of his life out of the public eye, feeling no need to pose for postcard publishers. Fitzgerald had a more troubled life, with the result that he, too, has few vintage cards attached to his name. What examples there of both men are included in this volume.
