Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. At the height of the Jazz Age, when Prohibition was turning ordinary citizens into criminals and ordinary criminals into celebrities, America's true crime detective magazines were born. True Detective came first in 1924, and by 1934, when the Great Depression had produced colorful outlaws like Machine Gun Kelly, Bonnie and Clyde, Baby Face Nelson, and John Dillinger, the magazines were so popular cops and robbers alike vied to see themselves on the pages. Even FBI boss J. Edgar Hoover wrote regularly for what came to be called the "Dickbooks," referring to a popular slang term for a detective. As the decades rolled on, the magazines went through a curious metamorphosis, however. When liquor was once more legal, the Depression over and all the flashy criminals dead or imprisoned, the "detectives" turned to sin to make sales. Sexy bad girls in tight sweaters, slit skirts, and stiletto heels adorned every cover. True Crime Detective Magazines follows the evolution and devolution of this distinctly American genre from 1924 to 1969. Hundreds of covers and interior images from dozens of magazine titles tell the story, not just of the "detectives," but also of America's attitudes towards sex, sin, crime, and punishment over five decades. With texts by magazine collector Eric Godtland, George Hagenauer, and True Detective editor Marc Gerald, True Crime Detective Magazines is an informative and entertaining look at one of the strangest publishing niches of all time.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Leichte Verformung / umgeknickte Seiten. ,Meine Freunde wollten Feuerwehrmanner, Farmer, Polizisten oder so was werden. Ich nicht. Ich wollte immer nur das Geld anderer Leute klauen!"--John Dillinger. Im Jazzzeitalter, als die Prohibition Burger zu Kriminellen machte, entstanden die ersten Detektivhefte. True Detective erschien 1924 und wurde 1934, wahrend der Grossen Depression, beruhmt durch spektakulare Verbrecher wie Machine Gun Kelly und Bonnie und Clyde. Die Zeitschrift zog sowohl Kriminelle als auch bekannte Cops an, darunter FBI-Chef J. Edgar Hoover, der regelmassig fur das Magazin schrieb. Mit der Zeit anderten sich die Magazine: Als Alkohol wieder legal wurde und die Verkaufszahlen sanken, wandten sie sich der ,Sunde" zu, um Umsatz zu generieren. Aufreizende Frauen in knappen Outfits zierten die Hefte, die mit Titeln wie ,Sexgewohnheiten weiblicher Killer" und ,Bose Madchen" aufwarteten. True Crime Detective Magazines verfolgt die Entwicklung dieses amerikanischen Genres von 1924 bis 1969. Hunderte von Cover- und Innenseiten erzahlen eine Geschichte, die nicht nur von Verbrechen, sondern auch von Amerikas Einstellung zu Sex, Schuld und Suhne handelt. Mit Beitragen von Eric Godtland, George Hagenauer und True-Detective-Herausgeber Marc Gerald bietet das Buch einen unterhaltsamen Einblick in eine aussergewohnliche publizistische Nische.…

Condition: Nuevo. Dust Jacket Condition: SI. 1ª. Pág./pages:333 2400 gramos/grams Idioma/Language:Ingles Durante el apogeo de la era del jazz, cuando la Ley Seca estaba convirtiendo a los ciudadanos comunes en criminales y a los delincuentes comunes en celebridades, nacieron las auténticas revistas policiales norteamericanas. True Detective salió por primera vez en 1924, y en 1934, cuando la Depresión había producido pintorescos fuera de la ley como "Ametralladora" Kelly, Bonnie y Clyde, "Baby Face" Nelson y John Dillinger, las revistas eran tan populares que tanto los policías como los ladrones competían por verse en sus páginas. Incluso el jefe del FBI J. Edgar Hoover escribía habitualmente para los que eran conocidos como los "libros de polis". A medida que fueron pasando las décadas, las revistas atravesaron, sin embargo, curiosas metamorfosis. Cuando el alcohol volvió a ser legal, se acabó la Depresión y todos los criminales de renombre estuvieron muertos o en prisión, las publicaciones detectivescas miraron a lo pecaminoso para vender ejemplares. Las chicas sexy con ropa ajustada, faldas con tajo y tacones de aguja decoraron cada esquina. Los titulares de portada pregonaban: "Yo fui una chica delincuente, por puro placer", "Las costumbres sexuales de las mujeres asesinas", "¡Novia del pecado!", "Ella me tomó por un imbécil" y, más suscintamente, "Mala mujer". True Crime Detective Magazines sigue la evolución y degradación de este típico género norteamericano de 1924 a 1969. Cientos de portadas e imágenes interiores de docenas de publicaciones cuentan la historia, no sólo de estas revistas policiales, sino también de las actitudes de EE UU hacia el sexo, el pecado, el crimen y el castigo durante más de cinco décadas. Con textos por el coleccionista especializado Eric Godtland, George Hagenaur y el editor de True Detective Marc Gerald, True Crime Detective Magazines es una mirada informativa y entretenida a uno de los sectores editoriales más extraños de todos los tiempos. "Mis amigos querían ser bomberos, granjeros o policías, algo como eso. Yo no. ¡Yo sólo quería robarle el dinero a la gente!" - JOHN DILLINGER. 25 x 28 x 4.…
