Auction History Result 5m073 ESQUIRE calendar 1952 each page has different super sexy pin-up art by several artists! Date Sold 4/8/2018 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Esquire Calendar (measures 8 1/2" x 11" [22 x 28 cm]) (Learn More) Esquire ("The Magazine for Men"), the magazine that was essentially a precursor of Playboy, which meant that it was filled with scholarly articles on a wide variety of subjects, but which also had pictures and artwork of sexy women (in the 1940s, they had art by Alberto Vargas, and Ernest Chiriacka in the 1950s). Once Playboy kind of took over that market, Esquire became more of a literary and scholarly magazine, with less emphasis on overt sex, but still aimed specifically at men (especially upscale ones). Important Added Info: Note that in the 1940s, Esquire had yearly calendars with great art by first Alberto Vargas, and then by Al Moore. But by 1952, they switched to having several of their artists each contribute to the calendar. This calendar was originally spiral-bound, just as the earlier ones were, but the spiral binding is missing, and it also does not have the printed envelope it originally came in. Condition: very good. The spiral binding is missing and the pages are loose, but they are in really nice condition (see our images). It does not have the printed envelope it originally came with.
