INSIDE FIELD & STREAM’S ILLUSTRATED OCTOBER 2015 ISSUE
New York, NY -(AmmoLand.com)- If October’s Field & Stream looks familiar, that’s because the illustration (titled “King of the Mountain,” by artist Stephen P. Hughes) is a modern twist on one of the magazine’s most famous covers ever, which was on newsstands about a century ago, in November 1915.
“I wanted to retain the confidence and spaciousness of the original.” Hughes tells Field & Stream, “It felt like I was working with a tangible piece of the magazine’s history, which was great.”
October’s cover pays homage to an iconic moment in Field & Stream’s 120-year history; while it draws attention to the technological advances that outdoorsman enjoy today, it reminds readers of the timeless joys of celebrating the outdoor experience.
