CLASSIC PIN-UPS FROM A GIANT OF THE FIELD - A collection of the rare '50s pin-ups that led to the artist's final gig, as Playboy's first star cartoonist. In the rarefied realm of classic cartoon pin-up art, nobody did it better than Jack Cole. With his quirky line drawings and sensual watercolors, Cole, under Hugh Hefner's guiding hand, catapulted to stardom in the 1950s as Playboy's marquee cartoonist, a position he held until his untimely death at the age of 43. Jack Cole has been justly celebrated as the creator of Plastic Man and an innovative comic book artist of the 1940s (especially in Art Spiegelman and Chip Kidd's Jack Cole and Plastic Man: Forms stretched To Their Limits).

After finishing his 14-year run on Plastic Man, he found himself looking for something new. According to Cole, his savior was the Humorama line of down-market digest magazines. This girls and gags magazine circuit proved to be the perfect training ground to regain his footing and develop his craft at single panel "gag" cartoons. His ability to render the female form was already without peer. Though he signed his cartoons "Jake," Cole's exquisite line drawings and masterful use of ink-wash - a skill he carried over to Playboy - betrayed his pseudonym. In comparison to his contemporaries, however, Cole was probably Humorama's least prolific artist.

Though his images were frequently used for covers, Cole's cartoons were few and far between, with scarcely a single drawing appearing every five issues. Along with a foreword by editor Alex Chun, this volume (originally released in a now out-of-print hardcover edition that now fetches high prices on the secondhand market) collects the best of these hidden gems, including several shot from Cole's stunning original art. Most of these drawings have not seen print elsewhere since their original publication.

1st printing.

Post-depression America was in desperate need of a defining iconography that would lift it out of the black and white doldrums, and it came in the form of Gil Elvgren's Technicolor fantasies of the American dream. His technique—which earned him a reputation as "The Norman Rockwell of cheesecake"—involved photographing models and then painting them into gorgeous hyper-reality, with longer legs, more flamboyant hair and gravity-defying busts, and in the process making them the perfect moral-boosting eye-candy for every homesick private.

Introduction by Marianne O. Phillips.

GIL ELVGREN (1914-1980) is one of America's premiere pin-up artists. More than mere pictures of pretty girls, his paintings tell playful stories that spur imagination. Freash-faced, innocent, and sexy, Elvgren pin-ups reflect the vision America held of the ideal American girl. They smiled from billboards and calendars across the nation, captured the heart of the American male, and went on to become a classic in American art.

This pin-up poster book, the first of its kind, is a carefully selected collection of Elvgren's paintings. A choice collector's item and a lasting pleasure, it honors the talent of GILLETTE A. ELVGREN.

Softcover, 10 1/2-in. x 13 1/2-in., 48 pages, full color.

Lavishly illustrated with over 100 new images by Silke and classic 'girl artists' George Petty, Coby Whitmore, Enoch Bolles, Al Parker, Rolf Armstrong, and others.
