Pin-up girls, 7-6 1944

Original art for a 1944 "Pin-up Girls" cartoon.

Found a couple more items. Wish I could hold on to them, but trying to sell off unecessary stuff. You can find them on e-bay. Hope you don't mind me posting information on these here.

Patterson-Cleary Children's Book

I came across Top Hats and Flappers and the name of Russell Patterson rang a bell. After digging around, I found this children's book in my storage container. Do not know how it got there or who it came from. The thing that baffles me is that not much of Mr. Patterson's original art is on the open market and when it does sell, it goes rather cheap. How can this be for such an accomplished artist?

Russell and Janet

Caption from back of photo:
One of the world's most famous fashion designers meets an even more famous actress. Russell patterson, left, is the designer and the actress -- well, it's scarcely neccesary to mention that she's Janet Gaynor. Patterson, recently brought to Fox Film to design scenery and costumes for "Fox Follies", is talking over what Miss Gaynor is to wear in the huge production.

[Was this movie ever finished/released?]
