[NUDE PHOTOGRAPHY] Meet the Models: Lot of 24 Vintage Model Books (1959-1960)
This is a collection of 24 digest-sized books featuring different pinup and cheesecake models. All are from the late 1950s or early 1960s. These booklets often included photography tips on either the inside front or back cover. Numerous publications used this approach to give the volume an artistic bent, in order to get away with showing pictures of beautiful women naked, and thereby avoid any potential obscenity charges. All 24 booklets are described below, and all are pictured.
