Film Fun Magazine



Film Fun was a magazine that was published from 1915 until 1942 with all the covers illustrated by Enoch Bolles. At the time he was the premier pin up artist as you can see. These covers were considered "racy" for the day. The magazine ran stories about movie stars, the movies they were in and contained lots of pictures for the serious "reader". I imagine it was the "Playboy" of those days. Bolles was another one of those great pin-up artists along with Gil Elvgren. Bolles however didn't sign any of his cover art.
