College Humor 1930

"College Humor", a 1930 magazine cover by Rolf Armstrong, depicts a glamorous woman in a white bathing suit seated in a wooden boat, while a smaller figure in a yellow headscarf appears to be steering the boat from within. The woman looks directly at the viewer with a confident smile, representing the magazine's theme of light-hearted humor. The cover art is a prime example of the popular "New Woman" image of the 1920s and 1930s, portraying a modern and independent woman enjoying the pleasures of leisure.
