Make of them what you will.

-An epically sexist, cheeseball introduction to this original calendar.  MacPherson was quite a well-known calendar artist, clearly inspired the troops, and the jaw-dropping copy above that makes Mad Men look like a seminar at Evergreen College was probably not his fault. The art studio themes in the pin-up illustrations are priceless.
