Offered is an original February 1951 vintage pin-up calendar page featuring artwork by noted American illustrator Al Moore.
This playful mid-century image features a glamorous red-haired pin-up dressed in a green jester-inspired costume, complete with bells and matching slippers. The bold red and green coloring, whimsical Mardi Gras-style theme, and classic 1950s glamour make this a particularly eye-catching example of vintage calendar art.
