2.0 out of 5 stars Never reveal everything, 17 Nov 2002
By Robin Benson - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      

The contents of Robert Harrison's pulp girlie titles, Beauty Parade, Eyeful, Titter, Wink, Whisper and Flirt form the contents of this book They were published between 1942 and 1958 and they mostly showed black and white photos of scantily clad ladies (Harrison did not approve of nudity) in slapstick situations, with copy written to accompany the photos as puerile and clichéd ridden as you will ever read. These photos are all very tame by today's standards. The book reproduces covers and spreads (and some of the down-market ads) from these magazines.

The contents of these titles are basically trash but they do have one thing of interest, their covers, these were paintings rather than photos. Pin-up artist Peter Driben painted hundreds of covers for the six titles and dozens are shown in this book, some other pin-up artists are included as well.

Before you rush out and buy the book you need to know that all the covers and the spreads have been sized slightly bigger than the book. This does not matter too much with the reproduced spreads but all the covers have been ruined because of this enlargement, the title logos and coverlines run of the side of the page.

Two better Taschen cheesecake titles are 'The Rottenberg Collection', seven hundred pages of American pin-ups (mostly nudes) from the forties to the sixties from the collection of Mark Rottenberg. European pin-ups are covered in 'Serge Jacques' by Gilles Neret. Both these titles are far superior to '1000 Pin-Ups' BTW, the book was originally published under the title of 'The Best of American Girlie Magazines' by the same author.

5.0 out of 5 stars wot a bargain., 7 Oct 2003
This book is worth every penny, but it is similar too 'Girlie Magazines' again by Taschen, but different enough to be worth buying both.
The content is hundreds of magazine icons of the fifties i dont know their names but they are remembered here in their glory.
The pages (original's) are cropped some of the adverts are there in their weirdness and so cheap then.
Cover art from magazines is how they where when bought, but i was a baby then so how would i know but if an adult then no doubt i would have bought them.
So top shelf from the fifties and excelent value, it will take ages to read or look at.
Very good binding so should last for years.
Buy it and you will not be dissapointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars 1000 pin ups, 14 Aug 2002
By A Customer
A nice little hard back book full of bright and colorful pictures and photographs from archives of old pin up magazines.
One for the collectors, but well worth the price if you enjoy this kind of art.
