People's Home Journal also featured contributions from well-known writers and illustrators, including Edith Wharton, Jack London, and Norman Rockwell. The magazine's covers were also noteworthy, featuring beautiful illustrations and photographs that highlighted the latest fashions and homemaking trends.

In 1939, People's Home Journal was merged with Woman's Home Companion, another popular women's magazine of the time. The new publication, called Woman's Home Companion and People's Home Journal, continued to cover similar topics related to the home and family.
