    Missed that! Yes, very nice, and I like the spectators paired with it. "A skinny man with two-tone shoes." I'm delighted you've enjoyed it! It's very satisfying to know others find it as meaningful and enriching as I. I've a few more to go - I like symmetry. And then I shall cast my gaze...

    Esquire’s Complete Golden Age Illustrations:

    When I began this thread a few months ago I stated my intent only to offer illustrations through the July 1947 issue of Esquire, the intended topic being Esquire's Golden Age. But defining when this period began and ended is by its nature both subjective and arbitrary, in addition to the term...

    Perhaps Arnie trying to save on the cost of ink? ;) By reputation, a frugal rascal!

    Esquire’s Complete Golden Age Illustrations:

    I'm pleased that you enjoy it. The collection is a bit arbitrary as to the period I've elected to include. The term "The Golden Age" is by definition subjective as to when it began and ended. And my choice to include some selected advertising is arbitrary being beyond the original editorial...
