This 1956 spiral calendar features artwork by George Petty.  It is in excellent condition with some minor wear and its first page (January) is beginning to lightly tan from age but the rest are nice and it displays well.  It features amazing illustrations by Petty, two of which are shown for reference in addition to the back of the calendar.  It also includes the original sleeve which is worn (see scans).  It will be shipped with the utmost care. 

About the artist:  George Petty (1894 – 1975) was an American pin-up artist whose work appeared primarily in Esquire and Fawcett Publications's True but was also in calendars marketed by Esquire, True and Ridgid Tool Company. Petty's Esquire gatefolds originated and popularized the magazine device of centerfold spreads. Reproductions of his work, known as "Petty Girls," were widely rendered by military artists as nose art decorating warplanes during the Second World War, including the Memphis Belle.
