How ’bout a Pinup Calendar?

2010 March 189

Or not. Above is the front cover of what appears to be a cheesecake pinup calendar from Frank Dial Tire Co., in Pampa, TX in 1946. But, below left is the inside… cooking tricks, household hints and a recipe. And Mrs. Wholesome there is as close to pinup as you get. I was shocked and appalled. So I’ll throw in a blurry cheesecake cover of a pocket-sized notepad from the Baroid Division of the National Lead Company.
