Men's adventure magazines in postwar America : the Rich Oberg collection Postwar america

Résumé du livre

Whether battling ferocious lions or maneating weasels, whether shackled in prison camps or clashing with motorcycle gangs, the hunky heroes and buxom babes of men's adventure magazines were always fighting their way out of dangerous "true story" scenarios. To pay homage to the American postwar periodicals that "documented" such outrageous exploits, Taschen brings you this hefty guide packed with over 1000 outrageous covers, an in-depth history of the publishers, profiles of the artists and writers, and an exclusive interview with artist Norm Eastman.
