author/editor Jay Moynahan title/subtitle Fifty Years of Prostitute Photos, 1870-1920. Volume IX series/number Vol. 9 publisher Chickadee Publ., Spokane, Washington year (pages - size) 2018 (68, ill. - 8 ¼" x 5 ½") book cover gebunden mit farbigem Deckelbild source INT country USA blurb This is the ninth volume in the series. The photographers and women in the photographs are mostly unknown. Most of the photographs were produced by professional as well as amateur photographers. Most of the women are shown in photographic studios with painted backdrops. The rest of these photographs were taken in a variety of settings. All photographs date between 1870 and the 1920s. The majority are of American and French prostitutes. It is not known if these particular French women were active prostitutes in the United States or Canada. As in previous books, photographs range from fully dressed prostitutes to those who had shed all their clothes. The photographs are not pornographic, the ladies are just not wearing clothes. I have also found contemporary society has acknowledged, preserved and celebrated the pioneer prostitutes. I have interspersed these facts and observations in this volume. I have made observations about specific photos and recorded them on the relevant pages. comments - |
