She's calling to me, George! Can you hear her? "Joooeee?" "Joooeee?" You know who to call when she's ready to move out!

Joe may be wrong. I think she's calling, "Jerr-y!, Jerr-y!" And if Joe doesn't answer when you call his place leave a message at mine!

Thanks for the comments- this is one of my favorite pieces I own. Bob's Daughter Lynn Maguire is doing a book on his art and this piece and my other two (the noir piece in this gallery and the Sci-fi painting in the Maguire Hot women and guns article in the Forums ahve all been shot for the book. This piece also has a companion piece done for a Ace Double Detective that I sold for a friend several years ago- same blonde, same leotard stil ltopless but painted from the back- wish I could have kept that one- but you can't keep them all! (I think that deal helped get my only color Kelly Freas finished painting) Best George Hagenauer

Wow! Just beautiful. Love the hat. And the gun. And the girl ain't bad, either.

I noticed this art and commented on this a couple of years ago and since then I've compelled to come back to it often and check it out. It may be one of my favorite Maguire paintings ever. Just exquisite.

And all this time I thought she was calling to me (rather than Jusko). Sheesh.

Travis McGee would slap her, and she'd melt into his arms. Yep, that's the way it would go. Now, if 'ol Steven Dilworth were to slap her, well, she likely knee him in his...

Awesome, awesome, awesome, vintage paperback cover art. She's perfect.
