We purchased 5 wonderful old original Esquire Magazine Cartoon posters years ago and they have been in our personal collection. They are large, bright and beautiful. We have never seen them offered anywhere before, and really know nothing of their past history. They are by well known forties Esquires graphic illustrators, all unsigned.

This poster may be by well known African American illustrator E. Simms Campbell, graphic designer, poster artist, and cartoon artist, as it resembles his Esquire and later "Cuties" work greatly. Do you know?

This American art deco poster shows a young mother showing up unannounced at the office of a literary journalist at the the Daily Star newspaper. The glass pane on his door reads "Bright Sayings of Children Editor." The writer looks stunned as a rather bratty kid scowls next to him. Mother, feather in her classic art deco vintage hat is saying "All right Egbert, let him have it!" The poster is archivally linen backed and ready for framing.

Size: 28 x 40 inches
