Pin-up travels the long road from barracks wall to high art. Since TASCHEN released The Great American Pin-up, international interest in this distinctly American art form has increased exponentially. Paintings by leading artists such as Alberto Vargas, George Petty, and Gil Elvgreen that sold for $2,000 in 1996 are going for $200,000 and more today. Pin-up - drawings, paintings and pastels of an idealized female face and figure intended for public display - was produced between 1920 and 1970 for calendars, magazine covers, and centrefolds. With some bumping to carrying case, however case is unopened. pp. 548.
