From the 1920s to the 1960s, the magazine was one of the most widely circulated and influential magazines within the American middle class, with fiction, non-fiction, cartoons and features that reached two million homes every week.
The Saturday Evening Post declined in readership through the 1960s, and in 1969, it folded for two years before being revived as a quarterly publication with an emphasis on medical articles in 1971.
As of the late 2000s, The Saturday Evening Post is published six times a year by the Saturday Evening Post Society, which purchased the magazine in 1982. The magazine was redesigned in 2013.
