Delicious Pin-Ups

Pin-up pictures have been a part of Kustom Kulture. I like them. An Italian photographer, Simon Remeo retraced a portion of the culture, focusing only on the models, dressed and made up like those that appeared in the magazines of cars and bikes in 40's 50's. Many are the tributes to the drawings of the great illustrators of the time, Alberto Vargas, Gil Elvgren, as the effigies on American bombers who gave birth to an artistic movement named Nose Art The Pin-Up Delicious photo book is presented in A4 format with 80 pages of glossy paper from 170 grams to accommodate the 50 best shots of the author, published in limited edition of 1,000 copies. The book is available directly from the artist's website, which seems to be dead at this moment. Via: motoblog.it
