Humorama - Cartoon Comedy Parade March-'63 Illustration (Published Twice - 1962)

Check out this beautifully rendered 1962 Bill Ward wash toned Humorama Cartoon Comedy Parade for the March 1963 issue. Bill Ward is well-known for his buxom beauties in these richly illustrated and detailed single panel gag comics. This particular pinup features an oldman very happy to buy numerous gifts for his very busty super sexy partner! Ward's work appeared (and re-appeared) in many Humorama titles over the years. Timely's "Men's humor" publishing imprint quite possibly out-published the regular comics unit. This particular cartoon appeared in two different titles. First in Cartoon Comedy Parade in March of 1963 (possibly just Cartoon Parade), and then again in Stare in February of 1970 (V12#90). Created in charcoal, ink, and graphite on paper with a very large image area of 17.75" x 23.25". The fragile paper has toned, and has a few small tears on each side. Art is affixed to the original Bristol board backing board from its production days. Signed in lower left.
