Elvgren started producing pin-up girls in 1937 for the publishing company Louis F. Dow, however in 1944 he moved to Brown and Bigelow who offered $1000 per pin-up, substantially more than he was getting at Dow. His contract specified between 18 and 20 pin-ups per year, and only for Brown and Bigelow. However Elvgren soon branched out into other forms of commercial art, amongst them adverts for Coca Cola, Ovaltine and others.

Alberto Vargas is perhaps the best known and most respected of all the pin-up girl artists. Born in Arequipa, Peru in 1896, he was the son of respected portrait photographer Max Vargas. His father secured an apprenticeship for Vargas at Julien Studios in Switzerland in 1915. However, Vargas soon decided that Europe during World War I was not the healthiest place to be and so traveled to New York in 1916. After two lucky breaks, producing lobby paintings for Ziegfield Follies in the 20's and Hollywood portraits of stars in the 30's, Vargas was approached to provide artwork for the newly started Esquire Magazine in 1940.
