News About Calendar Girls Calendar Pinup Girls I recall the days when       calendars of pinup girls were casually displayed       in auto repair shops,       back offices, locker rooms       and warehouses, each month featured a new,       glamorous example       of nude or semi-nude       American women       in risqué poses twelve pulchritudinous females       a year, with sometimes a bonus. Today, sitting in a car repair’s       waiting “lounge,” the ubiquitous tv is all you see       stuck to Fox News       spewing its misinformation       and lies into American brains       turning men, especially,       into dumb-downed sheep. I so much prefer the honesty       of a classic pinup girl, acknowledging my horniness       and hopes for       a Saturday Night Date! ©2024 Carl Scott Harker, author of Classic Fine Art Nudes of Vallotton, Munch & Falero ==>Check out this year’s Calendar Girls Pinup Calendars on Amazon!

There was a time when to watch shows on your television set you had to have an antenna on your house’s roof. And to get the perfect picture you needed to adjust the antenna – moving it right or left – to pick up the best broadcast signal. In the lovely Gil Elvgren pin-up art below, a beautiful woman is sitting on the edge of a roof adjusting the TV aerial and and showing a bit of leg at the same time. This is a classic example of the sexy “cheesecake” art of the late 1940’s and 1950’s.

This image of a pretty woman up on the rooftop, her leg curled around the pole of a television antenna, is available as an 8.5 x 11 inch photo print. It is for sale at my store on eBay (without the watermark). You can learn more about purchasing a photo print of this “Woman up on the Roof” by clicking on the picture. Or click on the link below the art to be taken to this eBay item.
