These drawings are top class artistic work of the style. There are four lingerie/swimsuit items, three sport items, three children items, and two scenic items of the Cape, all numbered 1 to 12. Edward Francis Cole was a poster designer before the Great War. In the 1920s he also drew postcard art for Pictograph Publishing including the 'Kitten Series' and the 'Artistique Series' (glamour). His iconic 1930's posters for New Zealand Apples are well-known and highly collectable. He left England for South Africa after the war where he established himself as a successful commercial artist, his work including advertising brochures, book covers, and other illustrative work. These works date from this later period.
