1950s Glamour (20th Century Pin-Ups)

Ammonite Press unveils a series of four picture books, compiled from the archives of the classic girlie magazines, Fiesta and Knave, which celebrates an age when glamour photography strove more for artistic ideals and risquƒ© titillation than the sexually explicit top-shelf titles of today. The bevy of beauties that graces the pages of these four books illustrates the changing faces<QUOTE>€and bodies<QUOTE>€of the glamour model over four decades, from the demure to the titillating, the seductive to the steamy, the erotic to the raunchy. Each title features almost three hundred photographs, all with whimsical yet reverential captions describing the girls, the sets, the poses, and the props.
