found out The Riddler was first introduced in 1948, so i thought it would be fun to draw him in fashion inspired from that era. he probably says "dapper" and "chap" a lot

Ford Flashback Concept, 1975, by Ghia. A retro design study that explored the concept of a premium subcompact with 1930s & ‘40s-era styling elements like a long hood, protruding grill and headlights, fender louvers and bustle-back trimmed with leather straps. It was presented at the Chicago Auto Show but went no further than a single prototype

Propaganda

Bob Hope (Road to Rio, Road to Morocco)—no propaganda submitted

Gregory Peck (Spellbound, To Kill a Mockingbird, Roman Holiday)—i mean, just look at him. his performance in to kill a mockingbird is probably responsible for millions of people being into dilfs. aside from being absurdly gorgeous, he was also a genuinely good person and a political activist throughout his life! (you know a guy is great when he was listed as a personal enemy of richard nixon.)

This is round 1 of the bracket. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage man.

[propaganda photos submitted under the cut.]

Propaganda for Gregory Peck:

"Handsome face, beautiful eyes, amazing voice- what else do you need?"
