HOLLYWOOD GLAMOUR
3 4x5 photos of 40s starlets: Evelyn Keyes (irregularly trimmed), pegy Ryan, and a rare erotic Hollywood print of an unidentified girl on the lap of a man.The Hollywood pinup which began with Mack Sennett's famous "Bathing Beauties" reached its zenith in WWII. Evelyn Keyes, one of the most popular of the WWII era pinup girls, wrote in "Scarlett O'Hara's Younger Sister": "It was our patriotic duty to answer the gallant servicemen...with pinup pic...tures, the nakedest the Hays Office would allow...We females spent hours posing in bathing suits, negligees and shorts, jumping out of candy boxes for Valentine's Day. Posing with turkeys for Thanksgiving, sleighs for Christmas...it made us feel like such good Americans!" The pinup would endure through the Korean War and into the 1950s, when the more aggressive Men's magazines made them seem quaint and old fashioned. Today these photos, also known as "Cheesecake" are valuable collectors items symbolizing a time of more innocent glamour and beauty. Authenticity and satisfaction guaranteed - if for any reason the buyer is not happy, it can be returned for a full refund. Sold with no reserve..
