Group of two possible preliminary studies for the calendar, World Affairs, 1949. Pencil and gouache on paper. Both illustrations are 152x228 mm; 6x9 inches (image) on larger, folded paper. Title and signature in lower margin.
These pinup studies were possibly created for the March page of the advertising calender printed by the Kemper-Thomas Co., Cincinatti, Ohio. Each month features a model from a different nation. The caption on the March page reads: "You've heard of the Can Can in Gay Paree; So I'm sure you guessed it appeals to me; And that's the reason I stayed in those parts; I wanted to study their dancing arts."
