Original Ben Hogan Artwork Drawing By Mario Demarlo from 1953 Chesterfield Advertisement


Artist Mario Demarlo's inspiration for this smiling Ben Hogan profile drawing is undeniable when cross examined with his famous Chesterfield 'Best For You' cigarette advertisement, lending his name to the product during his magical 1953 season. Eyebrow starting points, shadows in hat and forehead among others are a match. In a caricature style that was perhaps drawn for a publication such as the newspaper, this 8" x 11" sketch on board places importance on the dark and light shading, with charcoal black eyebrows and hair above his ears and below his signature Tam O' Shanter or simply 'Ben Hogan' cap. Protecting it is the off-white onionskin page top layer, an industry standard to diminish graphite and charcoal smearing.
