1000 Pin-Up Girls by Taschen

In 1940s and 50s America girlie magazines couldnt show much, so publisher Robert Harrison lured his readers in with vibrant covers by top pin-up artists Earl Moran, Billy DeVorss, and Peter Driben. This edition celebrates this eye-catching candy with every cover of Beauty Parade, Wink, Titter, Eyeful, Flirt, and Whisper, from 1942 to 1955.
“To look at these pictures is to remember that there was a time when taking off your clothes was a potent gesture, when the mere fact of a naked woman could be thrilling” * National Post *

Angelika Taschen earned her doctorate in 1986 after studying art history and German literature in Heidelberg. She has authored various publications on art, architecture, photography, design, travel, and lifestyle for TASCHEN since 1987.
