Titillation - The Vintage Pulp Magazine Pin-Up Art of Peter Driben





Pubblicato da Telos Publishing
Data di pubblicazione: 14 gennaio 2017
Lingua: inglese
Specifiche: 22 x 28 cm, brossurato, 190 pagine
Prezzo: £ 26,99
ISBN-10: 1845831195
ISBN-13: 978-1845831196

Peter Driben was one of the most prolific, and certainly one of the best, cover artists to work on the risqué ‘girlie pulp’ magazines that flourished in the USA between the mid-1920s and the mid-1950s. This meticulously-researched, lavishly-illustrated book is a glorious celebration of his work, and an absolutely essential addition to the bookshelves of anyone with a taste for classic pin-up and magazine cover artwork.

The Art of Reginald Heade



Pubblicato da Telos Publishing
Data di pubblicazione: 5 gennaio 2017
Lingua: inglese
Specifiche: 22 x 28 cm, brossurato, 168 pagine
Prezzo: £ 26,99
ISBN-10: 1845831152
ISBN-13: 978-1845831158

Reginald Heade is renowned amongst vintage paperback fans and collectors as the pre-eminent British pulp fiction cover artist of the 1940s and 1950s. His beautifully-rendered, erotically-charged depictions of a parade of sexy, scantily-clad young virgins and vixens – the so-called ‘Heade women’, for some of whom he is rumoured to have used local ladies-of-the-night as models – are near-legendary amongst lovers of classic pin-up art; and the original books on which they appeared are now highly-sought-after rarities – in some cases, only a handful of copies are known still to survive.

In the lavishly-illustrated The Art of Reginald Heade, packed with hundreds of superb colour and black-and-white images, noted researcher Stephen James Walker presents the most comprehensive overview ever published of Heade’s life and work. This encompasses not only all of his iconic paintings for the famous Hank Janson range, but also dozens of other outstanding pulp fiction covers, plus his less-well-known but equally exceptional work for adult hardback fiction dustjackets, children’s books and periodicals, and even a selection of the pieces he produced at the end of his life under the alternative name Cy Webb.

The Art of Reginald Heade is a glorious celebration of the artist’s work, and an absolutely essential addition to the bookshelves of anyone with a taste for classic pin-up and book cover artwork.

The Art of Bernie Fuchs



Pubblicato da The Illustrated Press
Preordinabile da marzo 2017
Lingua: inglese
Specifiche: 9 x 12 pollici, cartonato con sovraccoperta, 240 pagine
Prezzo: $ 44,95

At the peak of his fame, Bernie Fuchs' work was more widely admired—and imitated—than any other contemporary illustrator. At the age of 30 he was named “Artist of the Year” by the Artists Guild of New York. By 1975, he was the youngest illustrator ever elected to the Society of Illustrators Hall of Fame. At the time, his work was everywhere—in national ad campaigns for automotive companies and major brands, and in national magazines such as McCall’s, Redbook, Cosmopolitan, TV Guide, Sports Illustrated, and many more. His work was included in the Society of Illustrators first annual book in 1959, and appeared in every year after for the duration of his career, a feat unmatched by any other illustrator. Now at last a major retrospective of Bernie's work has been assembled, the first such book published to date.

Fiuuuuu....

Proprio nei giorni di quell'asta gli scrissi per chiedergli se avevano intenzione di ristampare il volume come già fatto per quello di Dean Cornwell. Risposta:


O hanno fatto gli gnorri per non bruciarsi l'annuncio, oppure sono stato tra coloro che gli hanno dato il la definitivo.
