Vintage HOWARD CONNOLLY'Woman in Dress' PULP Book ILLUSTRATION PAINTING -LISTED
This is just a great original piece. One of two original Howard Connolly paintings I picked up from a local collector. In the past I have had a few of his landscapes but have never had some of his early illustrations that he was doing for books or calendars. Most of these date to the 1950s. I would say they date to around then, maybe the 1960s or early 1970s. This is a wonderful oil on board measuring 29 x 16 inches. It is unsigned anywhere that I can find but guaranteed 100% authentic Howard Connolly. A great pulp view of a woman in a shoulderless blue dress and wonderful dark hair against her pale skin. I believe this one was for a cover of a pulp book because the background has that silver spray paint that was the look that was used for books. Painting is in very good condition.

There is a layer of dust on the painting but that would be easily removed. Other than that the painting is in outstanding condition.

The bottom third of the painting shows just a pull down of brush strokes. There is also a water stain along the very bottom. This is where the painting would have been cut off for publishing.

If I were to frame it, I would cover this part up but really up to the new owner. If you collect Connolly or pulp like illustrations check my store for the other Connolly I have for sale.
