Book Description

If ever there were reason to believe in love at first sight, that reason would be Bettie Page. From the moment the first pin-ups of Bettie appeared, the world fell in love. Even now, a half-century after those first pictures were published, men desire her, women emulate her and more and more people all over the world adore her. What did Bettie offer the camera that the other, more celebrated beauties of her time including Marilyn, Brigitte and Sophia did not? Legendary pinup artist and entertainment historian Jim Silke dives into these tempting waters and offers his first-hand account of life behind the lens of the '50s pinup scene with his freshest book to date, Bettie Page Rules! Combining fun and informative writing with his singular insight into the world of gorgeous dames, Silke delivers a tantalizing pictoral portrait of all the 1950s bombshells. But that s just the tip of the cheesecake!"
