Beautiful Covers By Kinda Forgotten Cartoonist Don Herold An Early Master Of Minimalism In Cartooning

Let’s start off with more Fleischer promotional art. Why do I find these so fascinating? Perhaps because they echo a time that is so definitely over, yet through these ads, it speaks, it winks, it’s going about its business, like the 1930s never ended.

I mean, place the ads in context: Marilyn Monroe is a little kid. World War II hasn’t started yet. Amelia Earhart flies from Honolulu to Oakland, Ca. The board game, Monopoly debuts.

These ads are like insects encased in amber.

More HERE, and HERE.

Chic and unique Rossy Mendoza, whose name has become synonymous with beauty.

A few vintage pulp sci-fi covers. With aliens, Amazons and monstrous Gods you never run out of ideas.

Great Panel by Cartoonist H.M Bateman probably one of the best ever British cartoonist what I like in this one is how the man’s rage is represented in this grotesque abstract blob of anger and how the whole world seems to bend to his frustration in the background.Not to mention the great poses and facial expressions.
