Featured is an original vintage Varga Girl calendar page illustrated by Alberto Vargas for Esquire magazine.
This August image features a glamorous red-haired Varga Girl in a sheer white swimsuit, accompanied by the month verse:
"Each August Varga poses me
Arrayed like this . . . and so . . .
We asked if we should vary things—
(A million males cried: 'No!')"
Alberto Vargas' celebrated Varga Girls became some of the most iconic pin-up illustrations of the 1940s and remain highly collectible today. This page captures the elegant style, beauty, and humor that made the series famous.

From the Chuck Olson Collection — a long-held collection of vintage calendar art and illustration from the golden age of American pin-up artwork.
