Product Description
Product Description
Undressed to impress. When it comes to pleasure, size doesn't matter, as we all know it's quality, not quantity, that counts. But let's admit it: a big penis is undeniably compelling. Big shoulders, big lapels, and big hair may come and go, but the big penis never goes out of fashion. With those possessing more than 8 inches (20 cm) making up less than 2 per cent of the world's population, this rare accessory will always fascinate (a word, coincidentally, derived from the Latin fascinum, meaning both phallus and magical spirit).In this companion volume to "The Big Book of Breasts", we explore the centuries-old fascination with the large phallus, a fascination common to men and women alike. This hefty book is profusely illustrated with over 400 historic photos of spectacular male endowments, including rare photos of the legendary John Holmes. The majority of the photographs are from the 1970s, when the sexual revolution first freed photographers to depict the male entirely nude. Photographers include Bob Mizer of Athletic Model Guild, David Hurles of Old Reliable, Colt, Falcon, Sierra Domino, Third World, and Champion Studios, with each of these iconic photographers interviewed or profiled, along with information about each of their models. And if this isn't enough, the book closes with a special surprise comparable to the Guinness Book of Records' - Norma Stitz featured in "The Big Book of Breasts"!

Format:Hardcover
A beautifully put together book which includes some amazing pictures of very well endowed men. Most of the pictures are from the 1970's and pictures are grouped by photographer/studio. There is some interesting information contained within the text of the book, although this text does not feature heavily with the pictures doing the talking. Some interesting mini-bios of the models are included, written by the photographers. If you are interested in the male body, erotic photography or just want to see some massive you-know-whats this is the book for you. Well worth investing in!

Format:Hardcover
An excellent art book of photography of men and the male penis with some truly jaw dropping pics. Though all the photographs appear to be dated from the 50's to the early 80s it just adds to the theme and design of this compilation of penises. A suberb art/coffee table book - it definitely always becomes a conversation piece.

I hadn't realised until I got this that it wasn't the same book as the original (which I'd seen in a shop), just made into 3D.... despite it having the identical cover. Read more

Reveal the penis!
A lot of pictures, both in black-white as in colour. As said in other reviews are most pictures quite old (1970's). Read more

Fascinating look at the most talked-about part of the male body.
The penis has long been an object of fascination,even ridicule and humour. It has captured the imagination since before the Romans depicted it on vases over 2500 years ago,and that... Read more

Certainly does what it says on the tin! The book is big, as is the content! Though most of the pictures look pretty dated - I'd have guessed 70s - so it feels a little 'soft'... Read more
