{"product_id":"petty-calendar-5","title":"December, Calendar by George Petty","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis original George Petty calendar page from December 1948 captures the artist at the height of his powers. The 'Petty Girl' was an American institution by the late 1940s, and this ballerina-themed illustration demonstrates why. Petty's signature style is immediately recognizable: the impossibly elongated legs, the idealized proportions, and that knowing smile that made his work the most sought-after pin-up art of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe composition is deceptively simple, a single figure in a coral red leotard posed en pointe against a cream background, but every element is precisely calculated. The arms raised overhead create an elegant vertical line, while the contrapposto stance adds dynamic tension. Published by Fawcett Publications, this calendar page retains its original date grid with Christmas Day highlighted in festive red.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA standout piece for collectors of American pin-up art and post-war illustration, this Petty original represents the golden age of calendar art when these images decorated workshops, offices, and homes across the nation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.75\" x 8.75\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e George Petty\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good, Age-appropriate wear.
