Here is a lovely Halloween witch by pin up artist George Petty (1894-1975).
The long-legged "Petty Girl" mainly appeared in Esquire from 1933 until 1956 and this example was the October image from their 1947 Calendar. Petty girls were very popular during World War 2 and it was copy of one of his pin ups which adorned the nose of the famous B17 Flying Fortress The Memphis Belle.
More Petty Girls another day.
