George Petty, 1943

This was published in the New Yorker and what I find interesting is the implicit (special overseas packing) pitch to send the posters to our fighting men. Is something that women did back then? (I'm assuming that old Dad would not be sending his son Petty Posters in a rolled tube). But I don't find it plausible that wives or mothers would send what amounts to a softcore porn poster to their sons or husbands either. File under: It was a different time.
