Title: 1941 Esquire “Varga” calendar
Post by: cogar on June 19, 2009, 12:54:37 PM


This 1941 Esquire “Varga” calendar is one of two items which was just recently dug out of a box of mementos by my mother-in law who is 95 and given to the wife. It belonged to the wife’s father. The calendar is in great shape except yellowing of the January page.

The wife told me ;D to also post it to the Forum just to see what the experts had to say about it.

I found a “going price” for it, …. low at $150 to high of $300.

Here are pictures of the January and April pages.

I agree with D&b!  These are highly collectible!  If in great shape....you will/should do well!

(Sorry haven't posted sooner....the reply wouldn't come up on my computer nor could I post...my family thought I might go through withdrawals! LOL)

Oftentimes I click on a new or added post and it signals “end” and nothing there but a “purple screen”. To see the post I have to first click on an old post and then click “go” and re-click the one I wanted to read. Me thinks there is a “glitch” somewhere in the server software.

Maybe if the light is good today maybe I will click um & post um for you, iffen I don't forget. I've found that by taking pictures outside on the covered porch in natural light I get much better results than by using a "flash".
