Auction History Result 6h0561 ESQUIRE linen 28x40 special poster 1937 husband complaining while necking w/wife, ultra rare! Date Sold 4/14/2024 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. A Linenbacked Special Poster (measures 28" x 40" [71 x 102 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). If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned this poster twice, and those were both the same example, and that poster has now been reconsigned to us again, so this is STILL the only example we have ever auctioned!
