Description

“Wartime Vacationists” (Among Us Mortals, 08/16/1942)
by W.E. (William Ely) Hill (1887-1962)
22 x 17 in., ink on board

W.E. (William Ely) Hill (1887-1962) was known for his masterful black and white Sunday page, “Among Us Mortals,” sometimes referred to as the Hill Page.

In this August 16, 1942 edition, titled “Wartime Vacationists.”

“War is hell for a girl who used to ask bevies of picked males for week-end vacations at daddy’s country place. This year – what with the draft, defense jobs and gas shortages – there just aren’t any male visitors. Has to do the best she can with 14 and 15-year-old local talent. And that ain’t hay.”
