Christmas through the years with great December covers from Family Circle magazine. Theirs is another publication that I have subscribed to for many, many years. I like it well enough that I have never stopped my subscription - and it also helps that it is less expensive than many of the others I like. Are these vintage covers precious, or what? 1949:
1950:
1952:
And here we have 1956- with cover art by one of my favorites (yes, I'm aware you knew that already!) Walt Disney "And Staff". Tina gave me this one - she knew I'd be delighted!
And what have we here? Another favorite artist's cover - from the great Norman Rockwell(1967):
And the most recent one:
They still put out a nice magazine with a pretty cover - and I'm still reading them.

I love the cover with the little girl and the baby doll under the tree. Conveys the joy of Christmas so well. Great post. Love T
I have always loved Family Circle, also. Great ideas, recipes, etc. A great 'family' magazine at a great price!
these are soooo fab!
don't you wish you could still order the stuff in the back of the mags?
GREAT vintage Christmas covers! Thanks for sharing them with us, Heidi!
The latest cover, when compared, just doesn't hold a candle to the older ones. Yet again proving, "They just don't make 'em like they used to..." :(
Now I need to go get a Family Circle.I Haven't read one in years.
Great post.
I love the little girls bathrobe on the 1952 cover. I love those cards you posted yesterday. They are beautiful.
I'm so glad you all enjoyed them. I know what you mean, Anthony - they're just not the same!
the evolution of family circle! another winner heidi!
This magazine reminds me of my mom, she always bought a copy at the grocery store when we were growing up.
Family Circle is such a wonderful tradition! I always am delighted when I find an old one at a sale. I love the one with the Disney cover. The colors are fantastic! Twyla
