Men’s Adventure Magazines, The Postwar Pulps

Lurid and sultry images of illustrated covers of men’s magazines. This glossy book’s considerable appeal is in the lurid visuals, of which there are plenty…

Bursting the seams with full-color images of adventurous men facing cannibal savages, evil Nazis and busty women in chains (or doing the chaining)…

The buttoned-down image of 1950s America comes undressed … in the pages of It’s a Man’s World … a red-blooded celebration of unbridled virility… A panorama of vintage covers and magazine layouts as well as acerbic insightful narratives from Parfrey and his contributors … a sprawling, well-endowed retrospective of a lost mid-20th century culture.

Lurid, full-color cover paintings rich with hot nympho babes in peril, manly men in combat and action, action, action… An admirable addition to the Feral House catalogue… Incredible.
