2020 Blue Monday Calendars - Week 09

You might think that after posting Saturday Morning Toons yesterday that i'd realize today was Sunday. Well, i realize it now - with about 11 minutes left, and less than 15 before this post is supposed to go live.

Fortunately, i've got a few prepped and ready, just need the proper dates. But that means we just get the minimum this week - one of each of our 3 ongoing calendars.

For the Pin-Up Calendar, another classic composition from Rolf Armstrong -


I believe this is the first in this year's calendars for "Jack" Greiner with the April 1933 Gayety cover our Covers Calendar -


And for our Blue Calendar this week, Zoë Mozert returns with a stark portrait in blue - 


As always, the calendars are sized to print 8"x10" at 150dpi, with 1" square spaces for notations.

2020 Blue Monday Calendars - Week 08

Wording still laborious, so tripling up on the imagery instead. Each of our three calendar types gets three calendar pages this week, all three from a single artist.

For our Pin-ups Calendar, a new addition to our roster, Ernest Chiriaka -



Hugh Joseph Ward returns with a trio of Spicy pulps for this week's Covers Calendar -
 

For our Blue Monday Calendar this week, we have a trio of classic blonde bombshells from the brush of Earl Moran -


As always, the calendars are sized to print 8"x10" at 150dpi, with 1" square spaces for notations.

2020 Blue Monday Calendars - Week 07

For this week's calendars, let's double up. I don't know - in honor of February and Two-Face or whatever silly excuse we need.

For our Pin-up Calendars, Mike Ludlow returns with a bit of cold weather beauty -



For our second classic Pin-Up Calendar, please welcome Joe De Mers to this year's gathering of artists -



For our Covers Calendars this week, we've got a Spicy pair from Hugh Joseph Ward



If the name H.J. Ward sounds familiar, perhaps it's from the 'original' Batman cover from the February 1936 issue of Spicy Mystery Stories



Finally, for our Blue Monday calendars, a pair of returning artists. Archie Dickens provides our only Valantine's Day calendar...


...and Zoë Mozert returns for a portrait of pure lovliness - 



As always, the calendars are sized to print 8"x10" at 150dpi, with 1" square spaces for notations.

2020 Blue Monday Calendars - Week 06

By popular request (Gordie's a popular kind of guy) we lead off this week with another from Edward Runci, the image that served for the template when putting together this year's calendars...


For this week's Cover Calendar, we've got another Enoch Bolles cover from the Film Fun -


It seems like we're leaning heavy on Enoch so far this year. I'll  try to remember to go a different way next week. But, as long as we're here, we've got the original painting for this cover, too -


This week's Blue Monday Calendar brings us a lovely winter image from Ren Wicks -


Yes, we'll be seeing more of Wicks' works.

As always, the calendars are sized to print 8"x10" at 150dpi, with 1" square spaces for notations.
