The Pin-Up Art of Bill Ward #[nn]

This Fantagraphics collection celebrates the work of Bill Ward, one of mid-century America's most accomplished pin-up artists. The cover showcases Ward's signature style beautifully — a glamorous dark-haired woman in lingerie and stockings reclines on rich red fabric, her knowing expression and elegant pose capturing the confident sensuality that defined his art. Assembled by Alex Chun and Jacob Covey, this 2006 volume offers a compelling look at Ward's draftsmanship and his unmistakable flair for rendering the female form with both humor and sophistication.
