The Little Book Of Vargas - 1ª Ed.

Alberto Vargas Took Over Esquire Magazine’s Monthly Pin-Up Post In Late 1940. By 1942, When The U.S. Joined The War, He Had More Than A Million Ardent Enlisted Fans Who Carried His Pin-Ups In Backpacks And Duffel Bags As Reminders Of The American Girls They'D Left Behind. When Esquire Was Charged With Obscenity Over A Particularly Spicy Pin-Up In 1943 The Military Stepped In To Fight For The Varga Girl, Declaring Her Necessary To Maintain The Morale Of Young Fighting Men. Today These Wartime Pin-Ups Are The Most Collectible Of Vargas’s Work. Find Them All In This Pocket-Sized Delight.
