Cover, Once a Week: An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper

This object is not part of the Cooper Hewitt's permanent collection. It has been able to spend time at the museum on loan from Ringwood Manor.

Eleanor appears on the cover of Once a Week in her costume from the Vanderbilt Ball. The publication described her: “One of the most attractive and popular girls in New York society is Miss Eleanor G. Hewitt. Rarely gifted by nature and most carefully educated, there are few women of her age better suited to take their place in life.”
