Synopsis
They've been exciting generations of men, on calendars and covers, as centrefolds or even on playing cards: pin-ups. What started as an exercise in oils was soon taken up in various media - pin-up mascots graced the fuselages of American fighters, and became an essential feature of the male world of garages and barracks. And the age of political correctness hasn't ended their appeal. This book tells the tale of a genre as utterly American as the paintings of Edward Hopper, describing its origins and development in detail and showcasing the most important artists. With over 900 illustrations, "The Great American Pin-Up"" is a comprehensive study of the pin-up genre.", They've been exciting generations of men, on calendars and covers, as centrefolds or even on playing cards: pin-ups.

    Amazing job wrapping my maps and protecting them from harm in shipment. The cardboard and bubble-wrap kept these cards safe from postal abuse. You folks are professionals in bookselling. (Your detailed item description and price made the sale for me over your competitors.) I look forward to doing business with you again. Thank you very much!

    Lovely!! These bring back memories!! Extremely well packaged! Used a larger box with convoluted foam to create separation in between minis then tightly wrapped to prevent them form moving around. They are exactly as described and pictured, seller is extremely polite, shipped promptly, overall a great transaction. Highly recommend this seller ! Thanks!
