    Postcards from the Great Trash Films SC (1988 -1989 Pantheon) 2-1ST

    Volume 2 - 1st printing. "Born to be Bad!" Selected by Michael Barson. BORN TO BE BAD is the sizzling sequel to the sin-soaked success of 1988, LOST, LONELY, AND VICIOUS - an all new collection of 31 indescribable movie posters, beautifully reproduced as tear-and send postcards. BORN TO BE BAD is not only fantastic fun, but is fully of high moral purpose. The sheer artistic range of the posters is staggering, from the Goya-esque rendering of VENDETTA to the crude tabloid imagery of THE FLAMING TEEN AGE. And the messages of the posters are equally broad, from the shame exposes of both UNMARRIED and UNHOLY WIFE to the unrepentant BLONDE SAVAGE and CRY BABY KILLER. And don't forget...RUBBER RACKETEERS, GUN CRAZY, TEENAGERS FROM OUTER SPACE, CAT GIRL, DELINQUENT PARENTS, and... Softcover (Horizontal Format), 8 1/2-in. x 5 1/2-in., 64 pages, Full Color.
