A treasure trove of pin-up girl images from photographer Bunny Yeager, celebrated for her playfully erotic photos of Bettie Page that continue to influence photography and fashion today. The only woman pin-up photographer of her day, Bunny Yeager was also a model in her own right. After winning several beauty pageants in Miami, Yeager went to photography school, and in 1955, she hit the jackpot with her shot of Bettie Page scantily clad in a Santa hat, which sold instantly to the fledgling Playboy magazine. The beginning of a long collaboration, her photographs of Bettie have now been featured on more magazine covers than those of Marilyn Monroe. This glamorous volume gathers more than a hundred lens-fogging photographs embodying the naughty girl-next-door eroticism of pin-up culture. Culled from Yeager’s extensive archive, the collection includes her most iconic shots of the legendary Bettie as well as many previously unpublished images. Yeager’s pioneering self-portraits and excerpts from her charming 1960s how-to manuals are featured alongside dozens of wholesome beauties shot in the studio and on location. A fun and sexy book, it… (mais)

This is really a one-star book because the 'uplifting' advice and inspirational help of knowing that you will "look your best and be your best" when you are only thin, is padding of what are essentially charts of calories and meals, was boring as hell to read. Also stupid, "eat some food that you really dislike when think you are hungry". Right. OK. You think someone with that level of self-discipline would even need this book? Its very old-fashioned, like something from the I Love Lucy era, and like the show is very funny, although unintenionally so, and that's where it earns its extra star.

A sample day's menu:

Breakfast: 1 cup Sugar Frosted Flakes with 1/2 cup of skim milk.
Lunch: 3oz roast turkey, 1 tblspn cranberry sauce & 1/2 cup green peas.
Dinner: 6 broiled shrimp, 3 lettuce leaves and 1 small tomato.

Holiday dinners with the family present very little challenge though, as you are allowed to eat EVERYTHING, just only one teaspoonful of each which you should put on your plate at one time, so it looks full.

She suggests that if you are a house guest whilst on the diet, you confide in the hostess how important your diet is to you and beg her not to tempt you with anything not on your list. Bunny Yeager then suggests that you go food shopping with your hostess and while she fills her cart with food for her guests/family, you add in all the things that you need for your diet and then offer to pay 'your share'. Which, the author confidently states, 'will probably be turned down".

Oh my, I don't know in what world Bunny Yeager lives but I've never been there (and I don't want to go, even if it would 'do me good').

this is a beautiful collection of photography (most by Bunny Yeager with only a few classic bondage exceptions). It's strange that a book was published with her name misspelled in the title.
