EDITORS COMMENTS
This front cover illustration graces the December issue of Modern Weekly magazine in 1932, created by the talented British artist David Wright. Wright was a prolific contributor to The Sketch during the 1940s, and his pin-up series became a sensation, adorning the walls of military messes, bunkers, dormitories, and clubs across the country. The image of a stylish and alluring woman, with her hair cascading down her shoulders and a confident expression, was a source of inspiration and comfort for soldiers and civilians alike during challenging times. Wright's illustrations were imported and highly sought-after, and his work regularly appeared in The Sketch, a prestigious London-based publication. The popularity of his pin-up series was unprecedented, and it is believed that nearly every military mess, bunker, dormitory, and club room in the country featured one or more of his works. This cover, with its striking design and timeless appeal, is a testament to Wright's artistic talent and the enduring influence of his work on the cultural landscape of the 20th century. David Wright's contributions to Modern Weekly and The Sketch during the 1930s and 1940s are an important part of the history of illustration and popular culture in Britain. His work continues to be celebrated and appreciated by collectors and historians, and this cover is a valuable addition to any collection of vintage magazine covers or illustrations.
