Glover Pajamas, 1928 & 1929

Some of the most beautiful, stylish ads ever for underwear were Glover's 1928/29 series.  I love the bold geometrics, the angled layouts, and the vibrant colors.  And their font even looks like pajamas. :D

The art and the poses in the first one remind me very much of the illustrator and artist Eileen Soper. She did a bunch of The Famous Five books - and the style is very similar.

I keep wondering what is going on in that first image. The rowdy crowd is... taunting Green Slippers? Just played a prank of some sort on him? Whatever it is, Green Slippers wants nothing with it and his boyfriend is going "C'mon guys he's tired stop it! D:"?

...no wait. I just realized they're telling Green Slippers to make out with his boyfriend. Never mind.

Did the illustrator pop a boner while drawing these?

I don't always wear horribly loud pajamas. But when I do, I get together with my best buds (also in horribly loud pajamas) for a nice banjo-and-piano hootenanny. And we always make sure our hair is smart and ready for action!

Okay, you horny men go enjoy each other in your fancy pajamas. Just leave me alone with those sexy fonts!
