A dazzling original 1942 pastel on illustration board by Weston Taylor, commissioned by the C. Moss Calendar company for a pin up calendar titled “Disconnected.” This is a classic art deco entanglement from pin up’s best era, when flirty and coyly posed young flapper girls found themselves in precarious and risque situations that defy logic and often times words. Pastel is vivid and in a very fine state of original conservation, well rendered and in a fine Larson-Juhl gallery frame properly lined under glass. Two archived vintage calendar prints of image included in sale. The Great American Pin-up personified.
