Reflecting the fashions of 1936 from the cover of Gay Book Magazine. Pin-up art by Enoch Bolles
Image by bollesbiggestfan1
One of Bolles classiest covers, published in 1936 in the hard to find magazine, Gay Book. It was sort of an upscale version of Spicy Stories, no nudity but punched up with some 1930s fetishes (pant suits, wrestling…). This cover is more unusual given the black dress. Typically art directors wanted color and lots of it. Plus, it took some real care to print black (and four color printing as well to do it properly).
