Title: Pin-up Girls
Post by: Anna on June 10, 2008, 12:42:40 PM
Anybody except me likes classic pin-up girls? I've been harbouring a secret crush on this kind of art - even attempting to do my own sometimes soon. I think most of the pictures were really pleasant and humorous (even if often in a somewhat sexist way).

Here is one of my favourites - "Rare Edition" by Gil Elvgren.

Ooh, I love them as well :D But I like 50s-ish things in general : D

Ah, that one was a bit newer. This one is true 50's stuff - Pleasing her Flock. :D

Hahaha, I can imagine men in the 50's looking at these and saying "Golly, she'd make a fine wife of mine".  :lol:

Yeah. She would make the beds and bake cookies and be a good mother -a right domestic goddess vacuuming the house while wearing suspenders and pointy bra. :D

Every single one!  :o

Great thread by the way, I too WAY prefer these ladies' body type over the anorexia stuff that's popular today.  And the art is quite "pleasant and humorous" indeed. ;)

I prefer pictures of actual ladies; you know, Marilyn Monroe, Bettie Page... They're my favorites.

However, in terms of pinup posters, I'll take pretty much everything I can get!

One Marilyn for You, then.
For the sake of minor's eyes, I posted the "clean" version, though the other one is far more interesting.  :P
