Flagg was also a prolific magazine and book illustrator, creating covers and illustrations for publications such as Life, Judge and Cosmopolitan. He was a member of the Society of Illustrators and was inducted into the Illustrators Hall of Fame in 1977. Flagg continued to work as an artist until his death in 1960 at the age of 82.
