Description
Smilby (Francis Wilford-Smith) Playboy Single Panel Gag Illustrations Original Art Group of 2 (HMH Publishing, c. 1980s). "For the last time - I am not going as a Femlin" A self-referential Playboy cartoon, as the Femlin adorned the "Party Jokes" page for decades. The cartoonist known as Smilby created his pen name by mashing his name with that of his wife's last name (Kilby). A second included gag illustration shows a cowboy making himself "Home, home on the range", with a punchline that reads "No ma'am, the badlands lie a little further ahead - these here are still the mildly-naughty lands." Both are marked as "rough" in the lower right, and may be just initial roughs, not the published piece. Created in ink and watercolor on 11" x 15" paper. Signed in the image area. In Excellent condition.More information about DO NOT USE Artist.
