Pin Up: A Modest History

People would be surprised to see and know just how many of the "new" models and poses are not really new at all. This is a great archive of examples of nearly all the erotic genre we know today, yet as a historical reference or origin. ANYONE interested in photography in any of the "Glamour" genres should have, and read this book.

Not for the merely curious reader, or those easily-offended types. It's a thorough history of the pinup in illustration and photography.All categories are covered, including Hollywood, as well as "girlie" models. Very worthwhile adult reading, excellently written.

This anthology of Pin-ups covers a span of several decades, incorporating the art of pin-ups featured in art, posters, magazines and magazine covers covers, and real life models, including both actresses and actors and constitutes a comprehensive look at the history of pin-ups from a Cheesecake tradition.

Great packaging, speedy shipment, excellent communication from seller and this book is incredible. Each page is graced with a beautiful vixen. I bought this to gain ideas for pin-up photography, and its an excellent resource.

I haven't opened it, but I'm familiar with the artists. I know it will be great. It's part of my Glamour Library.I have a reference library that I use for poses to prepare me for my own photo shoots.

it works

Beautiful art of beautiful glamorous women. A lost style, unfortunately.
