Virgil Finlay served in the US Army during WWII and saw combat in the South West Pacific theater, but also created posters and illustrations for the Morale Services during his three years of service. This is one of those illustrations as it is signed, "Oahu, Hawaii 1945". His editor must have liked it because he commissioned Finlay’s friend and fine writer Catherine L. Moore to create a story based on it.
