Jane's calendar 1947, the 2nd one

I've looked before at the work of Normat Pett (here) and his creation Jane (here) and recently spotted this rare piece of Jane merchandise for sale. I've swiped the images for posterity and note that this 1947 calendar has different images on it to this calendar that I blogged about in 2022

Angela Darling by Gordon Grinstead

I've looked before at the work of Norman Pett (for all examples on the blog just click here) and his creation Jane (click here) and recently spotted this rare book up for sale. I've swiped the images for posterity. 

The seller (https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/kimota444 - who often has interesting things for sale) said...

125 pages with risque artwork throughout.

Published by the same company that printed the 'Jane's Journal' books.

This is the rarest Pett book ever; trying to find another is near impossible.

Released 1st January 1949, there was the promise of another volume later in 1949 advertised on the back cover but this was never published.

Story by Gordon Grinstead, a pseudonym for JHG (Don) Freeman (1903 - 1972).
