Description
|
|
|
|
During the 1950s, under the Humorama banner, Abe Goodman churned out scores of cheap digest-sized magazines that featured cheesecake photos and single panel pin-up cartoons, including the work of Playboy's Jack Cole, Archie's Dan DeCarlo, and glamour girl legend Bill Ward. Here too was some of the racier work of Basil Wolverton and Dave Berg, as well as future syndicated cartoonists George Crenshaw ("Belvedere"), Bill Hoest ("The Lockhorns") and Brad Anderson ("Marmaduke"). Though bawdy at the time, the cartoons today have an almost naive quality in their images of pre-sexual revolution vamps and befuddled businessmen.
