Cowboy mail newsweek

I think you might be referring to the iconic "Cowboy Mail" cover of Newsweek magazine from 1971!

The cover features a photograph of a cowboy riding a horse, with a mailbag slung over his shoulder, and a caption that reads: "Cowboy Mail: The Last of the Pony Express Riders." The image is a nostalgic nod to the pioneering days of the American West, when cowboys would ride horseback to deliver mail and news to remote areas.

The cover was designed by artist and illustrator, Robert Weaver, who was known for his striking and often humorous artwork for Newsweek. The image has since become an iconic representation of the American West and the era of the Pony Express.

Do you have a special connection to this cover or the era it represents?
