An original pastel sketch of an aquatically themed pin up girl in a sailors cap by the prolific American pin up artist Earl Steffa Moran. This is not a finished calendar pastel it was either a preliminary sketch for his 1941 Brown & Bigelow Calendar "I'll be Seeing You" or was a presentation drawing given as a gift to a fan, friend or family member. This is 100% guaranteed to be an original pastel by Earl Moran; it is signed in the lower left corner and there is a verso note in the artist's hand as seen on the back of the frame. Beautifully matted and framed behind glass and ready to enjoy.
