Still sexist, but now collectible! Humorama is the umbrella term and publisher of a dozen or so pin up digest magazines from the late 1950s to the early 1970s. The first issue alone contained drawings by Dan De Carlo (of Archie fame) Jefferson Machamer, Bill Ward (the most recognizable vintage sleaze artist of all time...) not to mention photographs of both Bettie Page AND her later photographer Bunny Yeager! (Bunny worked on both sides of the camera.) Each issue followed the same format and formula. Not to mention the same jokes over and over. All are the digest sized, but far more entertaining than Reader's Digest. The original illustrations, of which there are thousands from over the 15 year run, are also highly prized today.
