1956 Females by Cole Playboy Napkins

I saw these on Ebay a ways back and knew instantly that I must have them:

females by cole box

They came in a box of 36, although the box I received had only 16 remaining.

I’m assuming the 12 images below would be the complete set (three of each?), but I have no real way of knowing.

OK, I’m gonna get out of the way now and just let them speak for themselves:

jack cole playboy napkin athlete
jack cole playboy napkin available
jack cole playboy napkin craven
jack cole playboy napkin devil may care
jack cole playboy napkin exhibitionist
jack cole playboy napkin glutton
jack cole playboy napkin indecisive
 
jack cole playboy napkin octogenarian
jack cole playboy napkin persnickety
jack cole playboy napkin prude
jack cole playboy napkin spinster
jack cole playboy napkin virgin

You just have to love Jack Cole. Look at those lines!  WOW!

Go enjoy them in beautiful bigness over at Flickr.

Congrats to Mike Lynch

Lynch

There’s a few big markets in gag cartooning that carry some status along with a nice check: Reader’s Digest, Playboy, and the New Yorker to name a few.

I’ve got one out of the three, but good friend Mike Lynch has two now! He’s in the latest issue of Playboy! (Well, thankfully not him per se, but one of his great cartoons!)

Normally I don’t pick up Playboy, but I can officially justify this to the Mrs.! Hooray! And hooray for Mike Lynch!
