Thanks for turning me on to Gil Evgren. I remember these from Esquire and Playboy from the 1960's. Never bknew who the artist was. I was too young. only 14 or so.

Thank you for the comment! Glad I could help you in some small way. I found out about him by reading an interview of the artist Terry Dodson. Now all I have to do is find out who Gil's influences were!

Thank you very much! I'd seen Howard Pyle's picture of pirates fighting over treasure before, but never knew who he was. You've given me much more to work with. Thanks again!

You can see his influence in Captain Blood with Errol Flynn in 1935 and in Pirates of the Caribbean from just a few years ago.
