Gil Elvgren is considered the most successful Pin-Up artist of the 20th Century. Elvgren applied the commercial mass appeal of advertisement art and the hint of humour to Pin-Up creating images that encapsulate a time and place in American history. Gil Elvgren is often considered the best Pin-Up artist of all time. Elvgren quickly became successful after graduating from the American Academy of Art in Chicago. In the 1937, Elvgren accepted a calendar contract with Louis F. Dow for 60 Pin-Ups. His calendars were very successful amongst the military in WWII, only Alberto Vargas Pin-Ups could compare in popularity amongst the soldiers. Gil Elvgren, Aside from his usual Pin-Ups, the artist was an extremely successful commercial illustrator. He created advertisements for Coca-Cola, Sealy Mattress, NAPA, and General Electric as well as story illustrations for magazines. Gil Elvgren had such success that his schedule was often booked a year out – few, if only Norman Rockwell, had similar success. Illustrators from this golden age of print media often collaborated on ideas on scenes and images. Notably, both Thorton Utz and George Hughes recalled two different ideas for Saturday Evening Posts covers that the Elvgren assisted with. Unlike other illustrators working within the Brown & Bigelow studio, Elvgren set up a studio in his home where famed models including Donna Reed, Arlene Dahl, and Kim Novak came to be photographed and painted by the artist. In 1956, however, the artist moved to Florida and met up with his fellow illustrators – Joyce Ballantyne, Arthur Sarnoff, Thorton Utz, and Al Buell. The move did little to change his career, Elvgren kept painting until his death in 1980.
