    By Tori Rodriguez.

    A lifestyle guide inspired by the Queen of Pin-ups - Bettie Page - The Little Book of Bettie offers real advice on fashion, makeup, fitness, and more for today's modern woman who loves a little dose of retro. The celebrated Queen of Pin-ups styled her own iconic hair, did her own makeup, fashioned her own swimsuits, and was ahead of her time in endless ways, making her a source of inspiration to stars like Madonna, Beyoncé, and Katy Perry. Against the backdrop of the conservative 1950s, Bettie Page was an advocate of pleasure, fun, liberation, and body-positivity. There's so much to be learned from her!

    1st printing. Text by Dian Hanson. Art and cover by Peter Driben. His name is less familiar than Vargas' and Elvgren's, but his brilliantly colored voluptuous pin-ups are well known. From 1944 to 1955 he painted the most popular magazine covers in America for Beauty Parade, Wink, Titter, Eyeful, Flirt, and Whisper magazines. He was rediscovered in the 1990s as the subject of Taschen's The Best of American Girlie Magazines, and since has decorated T-shirts and coffee mugs, album covers and tattooed tushes. Now his many fans can have over 200 of his original paintings and published covers, from the beginning to the end of his prolific career, in a light, portable and affordable edition.

    1st printing. Art and cover by Gil Elvgren. He's called the King of Pin-up for good reason. Gillette Elvgren, known as Gil, created some 700 pin-up oils during his long career, more than any other calendar artist. His subjects were flirty, sassy, playful and spirited, quintessential American girls who found themselves unintentionally exposed in myriad ways. His works have been the subject of top selling Taschen books and calendars, and now 200 of his best are available in a compact package perfect for gifting-to oneself and others. From his first mid-30s paintings to his very last, it's all here, more portable and affordable than ever! Softcover (Flexibound), 5-in. x 7-in., 192 pages, full color. Cover price $9.99.

    1st printing. Art and cover by Alberto Vargas. Alberto Vargas took over Esquire magazine's monthly pin-up post in late 1940. By 1942, when the U.S. joined the war, he had more than a million ardent fans who carried his pin-ups in backpacks and duffel bags as reminders of the American girls they'd left behind. When Esquire was charged with obscenity over a particularly spicy pin-up the military stepped in the fight for The Vargas Girl, declaring her necessary for morale. Today these wartime pin-ups are the most collectible of Vargas' work, and we've collected them all in this compact, affordable 192-page volume. Softcover (Flexibound), 5-in. x 7-in., 192 pages, full color. Cover price $9.99.

    1st printing. Written by Don Preziosi and Tina Skinner. Art by Earl MacPherson. Machines called Mutoscopes offered quick shows for a penny from 1895 until as late as the 1970s, flipping cards to create the impression of a "moving picture." During the 1940s, the International Mutoscope Reel Company began to manufacture coin-operated vending machines that served up 5-1/4" x 3-1/4" cards for collectors, usually of "pin-up" material. These cards are widely collected today, and a wonderful source of inspiring low-brow artwork. This comprehensive collection of more than 250 images includes work by noted artists Zoe Mozert, Earl Moran, and Gil Elvgren, among many other signed and unsigned, talented portrayors of the female form.

    1st printing. Maly Siri's Pin-up Art Good Girls / Bad Girls raises two themes. On one side, the "Good Girls": the damsels with soft skin powdering their faces in front of the mirror, the Tahitian girls with enchanting smiles and the brave soldiers. Their charm is due to their sparkling characters and apparent candor. And on the other side, the "Bad Girls": the rouged vamps with sensuous looks, the spies, the melancholic blues singers and other misfits. This book is a rich and delicious homage inspired by the iconography of the 1930's to 50's, a concentrate of pure glamour, with a preface by Chantal Thomass.

    Introduction by Marianne O. Phillips.

    GIL ELVGREN (1914-1980) is one of America's premiere pin-up artists. More than mere pictures of pretty girls, his paintings tell playful stories that spur imagination. Freash-faced, innocent, and sexy, Elvgren pin-ups reflect the vision America held of the ideal American girl. They smiled from billboards and calendars across the nation, captured the heart of the American male, and went on to become a classic in American art.

    This pin-up poster book, the first of its kind, is a carefully selected collection of Elvgren's paintings. A choice collector's item and a lasting pleasure, it honors the talent of GILLETTE A. ELVGREN.

    This pin-up poster book, the first of its kind, is a carefully selected collection of Elvgren's paintings. A choice collector's item and a lasting pleasure, it honors the talent of GILLETTE A. ELVGREN.

    Signed by Jim Silke and Lisa Marie Scott - 1st printing. This special hardcover edition is signed by Jim Silke and Lisa Marie Scott and is limited to a production run of only 300 copies. Jim Silke shares his hilarious first-person account of life as a 'pinup' artist-from the comic-strip vixens that influenced his youth, to his real-life adventures photographing Hollywood's most beautiful starlets and models, to his slaving over magical images of Bettie Page, Brigitte Bardot, and a host of other beauties. Lavishly illustrated with over 100 new images by Silke and classic 'girl artists' George Petty, Coby Whitmore, Enoch Bolles, Al Parker, Rolf Armstrong, and others. Pin-Up: The Illegitimate Art is a delightful, sharp, insightful look at the 'bedtime babies,' 'devil women,' and 'bare-naked ladies' that grace the walls-and hearts-of red-blooded lady lovers the world over. Silke is one of the few artists who could write this story. From his Grammy Award-winning stint as a music industry art director to his years as a magazine publisher, glamour photographer, screenwriter, and comic book artist, Silke's sensual artistic vision has made a distinct and lasting impact on contemporary culture. ?
