    What is the name of the Master Sergeant to whom "Idea Suggestion" goes? That will help identify your artist via his service record.

    Cartoons/comix / cartoonist histories, sexy dames, and World War II -- these should be right in our wheelhouse, and yet we've got nothin' on Nunn. From what we can see, this is very professional-quality stuff by a trained artist, but we've never heard of the guy nor seen his work elsewhere.
    Actually, it occurs to us, none of the pieces are dated, so they might be of more recent vintage -- but likely not more recent than the 1950s, judging by the style of the artwork and the garb of the characters depicted...

    @SBSVC "risque" is the word I missed -- without it, you can google for quite a bit and not find him. :D

    In my opinion, and looking back up at your poster section that I blew up the Best I could, I would DEFINITELY say it's the last one: M/SGT. Thomas B. Peters!!!!! Great info!!! It was the 'P' that threw me mostly!!!!

    Sorry I replied earlier but must not have been logged in

    Thank you so much for your help. Can anyone see the sold for price on Worthpoint. I know not really compatible since mine are larger and water colors. I have 15 of these one with comments and signatures of about 40 pilots. Just trying to get an idea of value for my client

    Did you ever find anything out about these posters? My dad was stationed in the Aleutians and I have twenty of these risqué drawings. Would love to know the value.
