Two sets of Six Mid-20th Century pin-up images for $16.00 including S&H!
Originally sold by Rocketline Art Calendars from 1940-1962.
These 6 subjects are
owned and published by
GOES LITHO. Co. of Delavan, WI. Established 1879.
Subject models are posed as Glamor Art and Situational Pin-up Art themes
designed to
place the viewer in an impromptu startling situation that occurs
unexpectedly.
Advertising calendars and
fountain pen ink blotters manufactured of paper was an inexpensive media that
wholesale and retail businesses used to place their name onto a desk or a
nearby wall hanging calendar.
Thus the client received a useful gift with vendor
contact information close at hand—these free useful writing aids were a constant reminder to the purchaser when placing orders.
After 1949 when a nude magazine
image was published of Marylyn Monroe and distributed on calendars the
following year, the situational Pin-up subject matter of advertising
disappeared quickly.
Images are printed on 70 pound
[104 GSM] Coated Paper
, of alkaline processing which resists
yellowing because acidic chemicals did not process the pulp.
Your subjects were
printed about 1989 for a retro calendar with 6 different opaque offset inks to
retain the original color.
Pink and light blue inks with a variation of
darkened red and blue inks recreate the warmth as viewed over 55 years
ago.
Gallery displayed subjects should
be kept away from direct illumination of sun or direct interior lighting.
A brief biography of each artist can be viewed here.
