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. The digests featured the likes of Playboy 's Jack Cole,
Archie's Dan DeCarlo and glamour girl legend Bill Ward. In addition to these
three pin-up cartooning luminaries, other notable who contributed to the pages
of the Humorama digests included longtime illustrator Jefferson Machamer; Basil
Wolverton, who influenced a generation of underground cartoonists; Mad 's
Dave Berg ("The Lighter Side"); and future syndicated cartoonists George
Crenshaw ("Belvedere"), Bill Hoest ("The Lockhorns") and Brad Anderson
("Marmaduke"). With this latest volume in its popular pin-up series,
Fantagraphics continues its commitment to showcasing the best of the classic
pin-up cartoon artists. Drawing from private collections of original art and
thousands of Humorama digests, editor Alex Chun has once again selected the best
of these long out-of-print images.
