Movie Humor - April, 1937 Issue. George Quintana Good Girl Cover art, "Okay Toots"

Descripción

New York: Ultem Publications, Inc., 1937. April, 1937 Issue, Volume 3, No. 9. "Good Girl" pin-up cover art by George Quintana, "Okay Toots", signed by Quintana in the cover illustration as well. Contents are illustrated from photographs. Quarto, illustrated stapled wraps, 66 pp. Very modest age toning. traces of light soil at the covers, tiny amount of damage at the bottom of the spine, though the spine is complete. See scans. A high grade Near Fine copy, unusual in this fragile and inexpensively produced line of publication. A scarce and iconic issue from the pin-up pulp world of the 1930's, the covers of which, when executed by the likes of George Quintana, Enoch Bolles and Earle Bergey, would currently be dubbed "Good Girl" art. And, that they are. While Bolles covers are scarce enough, Quintana, about which very little else is known but that he painted such covers as these (see scan) is a harder find. Contents are mostly Hollywood studio-produced photos of leggy entertainers who are generally not dressed for the arctic, with plenty of rumor-mill type text as well. The humor derives from the quippy editor-inserted captions next to the photos, mostly cinematic stills. A genre classic for both cover and content- and condition. See scans LG-2.
