Description

This is one of the most beautiful Bill Ward renderings I've seen. I love that she's "all there" but not as sleazy as many of Ward's women.

The caption is "I'm afraid your husband was either a comedian, or very forgetful -- All he says is, "I leave my wife."

It's a large piece, with an image area of 16"x21". It's taped to a board (hence the subtle waves picked up by the scanner), and on the back there are two stamps from "Humorama Inc" with an initial publication date of 6-6-56, then a reprint date of 5-61. There's then a note of "Zip 1/69" (Zip was another adult Humorama magazine). So I guess this has been published three times by Humorama.
