Treasures from THE THEATER COLLECTION at The Willing Mind.  By exclusive arrangement with The Grand Review.  Print size 24 x 16, and consciously formatted to work with a 24 x 16 frame, or custom framed as you see fit.  

May 1920. Capt. Billy's Whiz Bang is already a huge success, appearing at the end of WWI and daring to show gals as confident and sexy, bridging a much needed gap between prudish and tawdry.  Poo-poohed as shocking and the harbinger of a society lacking in morals when spoken of in public, Whiz Bang was read everywhere else from the loading dock to the school yard, the army barracks to the men's clubs, peeked at and tittered over by the Boy Scouts and the Campfire Girls, it was full of utterly cornball, thigh slapper humor.

As Robert Preston sings in The Music Man while warning of the evil that will surely follow if a pool hall is allowed into town... "Is there a nicotine stain on his index finger? A dime novel hidden in the corn crib? Is he starting to memorize jokes from Captain Billy's Whiz Bang?"

Whiz Bang went through a number of style changes with mixed visual results.  That said, the artist and art director really nailed it on this one, and once we restored it, this print became an instant favorite of my wife's and hangs joyfully in our home.

You've come a long way, Captain Billy!


NOTE on choices made during restoration.  This magazine was fairly rough, and we did quite a bit of repair to it.  While we are technically capable of tidying up every smudge and rip and scuff mark, we chose to stop and leave some of the damage as seen on the original, more than we usually do, because I believe it brought a special something to the print rather than took away from the experience.  I think the results speak for themselves.

A NOTE ON OUR PROCESS, OUR CHOICES AND THE QUALITY OF THE GRAPHIC CRAFTSMANSHIP THAT GOES INTO OUR PRINTS.

Every print we deem exciting enough to present to the public via our Etsy store or available here at our studio has gone through a number of steps.  The first of those is always discovering and falling in love with an obscure image, always an original that we can hold in our hands.  That image is speaking to us, sometime screaming “Don’t leave me here.  See what I am, what I was, what I can be, what I SHOULD be!”

There is a real sense of excitement involved, and a great many smiles and knowing grins when we make that deal and bring that ancient print, that battered photo, that scrap of ephemera that contains some scrap of genius from an unknown commercial artist home with us, knowing already how we mean to approach its restoration.

There is the heady promise of a further hunt just as real as what drags a weekend fisherman out of bed at 3AM to work a favorite brook as we start our research, looking for that great backstory, and both ready and willing to tumble down as many rabbit holes as are revealed to us to get that story.

Then there is a meticulous digital restoration that is as often as much fun as riding a vintage Moto Guzzi on a winding coastal road.  I don’t care if that sounds crazy, it really is like jumping in the saddle!  So many choices, so many chances to take to subtly or spectacularly give new life to otherwise permanently obscure images.

This dedication and the ongoing rush of joy in the accomplishment of it, and the opportunity to share the results in our studio and here on Etsy, is the fire of passion that keeps these engines roaring. We make every effort to ensure our customers are not just satisfied but thrilled, and we happily stand 100% behind our work.

7 months after purchase
Size: 8.5 Wide, Color: Black
7 months after purchase. Still look good. Very comfortable right out of box. Outside edges of heels chipped away almost right away. Never seen that before. Brittle/ bad choice of rubber or design? Leather upper still looks pretty good with a little polish. Rubber soles wearing very well.
