Description:

Don Flowers (d. 1968) created and drew "Glamour Girls", a series of so-called "pinup cartoons" between the 1940s and the 1960s. The cartoons featured beautiful blonds and brunettes, who lived to shop and generally cause males grief. Men were often the characters that drove the gags. This is an original artist drawing of the Glamour Girls characters.
