More Enoch Bolles

The Müscleheaded Blog

Some of you might
remember my post from a couple years back ,

— about the highly regarded
pulp and pin-up artist Enoch Bolles…..

I remember saying that Bolles
was not that well-known among non collectors,

….. at least when compared
to more famous artists like:

Gil Elvgren,
and
George Petty.

( If you don’t remember
the post I’m referring to,  it’s here. )

But, since I’ve been posting pin-ups
( a couple of years now )

I’ve had more requests for the work
of Enoch Bolles than any other artist.

And I’m not really

His style,
while anchored very firmly in the 1920’s,

still seems fresh and very lively…

He always has a way of bringing out
the exuberant side of the girls in his pin-ups.

And, of course,
his captions are always memorable.

Several of my friends
