Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Deluxe collection of classic girlie art by top illustrators cited above. Like new condition. Signed on front endpapers by the author: "To Norman, who provides me with plentey of pin-ups. Alberto, Nov. '95." The reference is to Norman Witte, the New York/Northampton/Paris rare book dealer and collector, from whose estate this book comes. The first volume of this series is relatively easy to find in the $100 range, but the author neglected to get permission to use Vargas art in this 2nd volume. Consequently the Vargas estate litigated, prevailed, and nearly all copies of the 2nd volume were destroyed. Signed copies are obviously even scarcer. Signed by Author(s).
