    John Atherton was a very successful commercial artist who turned to fine art in the later 1930s. He designed the art deco stone lithograph poster for the 1939 World's Fair that depicted Earth and its atmosphere in the lap of Liberty. During World War II he contributed to the war effort through the creation of award-winning poster art for the government. Also in the 1940s his work began to appear on the covers of leading publications, and he eventually created more than 40 covers for
