peter, I scanned these from the church magazines of whatever year a post is dated (1912 here, but many other years have been posted), which are all out of copyright, so be my guest. I hope no one would copy an entire post — which I realize you aren’t suggesting — and it would be nice if you publicized Keepa a bit by mentioning where you got your images, but do please help yourself to any individual images you would like.

The newspaper article on the dedication of the 17th Ward Chapel was wonderful. Thanks, Justin!

I cover this subject in chapter four of my unpublished monograph on the history of LDS journal cover art and design. The 1991 and Spring 1992 issues of JMH identified the design as an abstraction of the window tracery from the Seventeenth Ward chapel. The Fall 1992 issue identified it as an abstraction of the window tracery from the “Salt Lake City Ward.” The following issue, Spring 1993, the design was first identified as an abstraction of the window tracery from the Tenth Ward. This connection continued until JMH dropped the window tracery cover design in 2009. I pulled up a newspaper article on the dedication of the 17th Ward Chapel here.

J. (#9), The old JMH cover was based on the Salt Lake City 10th Ward Chapel window (according to the inside cover of each issue), though upon examining them, I think it looks much more like the 17th Ward window above. If you compare, the cover design resembles the pattern of it much more than it does the 10th Ward window.

I concur — these never get old. I’ve enjoyed everyone’s comments, too. Thanks!

I don’t normally say much about your LDS images posts, but I enjoy them all. Thanks for your efforts in putting them “out there.”
