Media: Two More Playboy Cartoonists

This post is just the tip of the iceberg... see reason number 9 on our The Top Ten Reasons To Support The A-HAA for links to more great pinup art.

We continue to work on scanning cartoons from Chad Coyle's wonderful collection of vintage Playboy magazines. Previously, we featured Erich Sokol and Eldon Dedini. Today we focused on Doug Sneyd and Phil Interlandi.

While both have strong, clear compositions, their rendering styles are quite different. Sneyd used layers of watercolor washes and delicate transparancies to create depth, while Interlandi slashed out his forms and textures with a bold, confident style. When you see the cartoons interspersed in the magazine, you might not realize how different each artist is, but when you see the cartoons grouped together by artist, you can really get a feeling for their individual style.

DOUG SNEYD

Roll me over, in the clover...


Can I stay and help you clean up the mess?


You came highly recommended, but I had no idea...


And this time, be more careful!


I won't be bothering you and Pop
with any more embarassing questions!


He wants to know if we make deliveries.


PHIL INTERLANDI

We changed our minds!


He'd rather fight than switch.






You have a dirty mind. I like that in a man.


Daphne! Get your butt in here!


The starter is fresh!


All I could get out of him was name, rank and serial number...
and an ingenious American invention called a "quickie".


Pay attention, damn it, pay attention!

Today was a very productive day at the Archive. I'd like to thank our dedicated volunteers, Marc Deckter, David Gemmill and Ryan Khatam for their help.
