Overview

No other pin-up cartoon artist over a 30-year period was as prolific or as omnipresent as Bill Wenzel. Virtually every humour and men's magazine, ranging from Judge in the mid-40s to Sex to Sexy in the 60s and 70s, boasted two, if not a dozen, of Wenzel's pin-up cartoons. Without a doubt, Wenzel is the most overlooked of all the pin-up cartoon artists of his era. With this volume, which features a selection of his sexiest and most sensual ink-wash images, Wenzel takes his rightful place among Humorama's top artists.
