Introduction by Marianne O. Phillips.

GIL ELVGREN (1914-1980) is one of America's premiere pin-up artists. More than mere pictures of pretty girls, his paintings tell playful stories that spur imagination. Freash-faced, innocent, and sexy, Elvgren pin-ups reflect the vision America held of the ideal American girl. They smiled from billboards and calendars across the nation, captured the heart of the American male, and went on to become a classic in American art.

This pin-up poster book, the first of its kind, is a carefully selected collection of Elvgren's paintings. A choice collector's item and a lasting pleasure, it honors the talent of GILLETTE A. ELVGREN.

Hardcover, 10 1/2-in. x 13 1/2-in., 48 pages, full color.

Cover price $21.95.
