Paul Murry's 1930's Pin-Ups.

Like Floyd Gottfredon, Paul Murry is probably most famous for all the Mickey Mouse comics he drew for Western and Dell Comics in the 1940's. But in the beginning of his career, Murry worked at Disney's animation studio as Freddy Moore's assistant. Beside redesigning Mickey, as first shown in the 1940's feature 'Fantasia', Moore was also quite known for his typical portrayal of girls, drawing pin ups and nudes.

Well, it seems Murry learned more from Fred than just drawing Mickey, as you can see from the Pin ups I post here, all drawn by Paul Murry in the 1930's. I think especially the first two resemble a typical 'Moore girl', don't you think? Check for your self below!




Here are two other pin-up gags attributed to Paul Murry from a later date (1940's):
