Split-Skirt Convoy T-Shirt Design

This striking design features the interior illustration "Split-Skirt Convoy" by Jack Dumas, originally created for the September 1960 issue of Argosy magazine. The artwork, executed in Dumas's signature gouache style, depicts a scene likely accompanying a story by Kenneth Kay.

Visual Elements and Interpretation

The design presents a visual interpretation of the story, with dynamic figures engaged in an adventure. Details from the original artwork suggest a convoy setting, with possibly military vehicles or transport ships. The reference to "split-skirt" could hint at the story's focus: perhaps a female character, or a suggestive title and design common for magazines of the period.

The use of gouache offers a sense of depth and richness, giving the design a unique aesthetic. The artwork captures the vibrant style of mid-20th-century illustration.

The design, originally created to engage readers with a story, now serves as a piece of vintage art. It’s a nostalgic nod to a specific moment in magazine illustration.
