 | author/editor Jay Moynahan title/subtitle Fifty Years of Prostitute Photos, 1870-1920. Volume VI series/number Vol. 6 publisher Chickadee Publ., Spokane, Washington year (pages - size) 2014 (63, ill. - 8 ¼" x 5 ½") book cover gebunden mit farbigem Deckelbild source INT country USA blurb This is the sixth volume in the series. The photographers and women in the photographs are unknown. Most of these previously unpublished photographs were produced by professional as well as amateur photographers. Many of the women are shown in photographic studios with painted backdrops. There are a few that were taken outdoors. Most of the photos in this book were taken between 1870 and 1920. The majority are of American and French women. It is not known if these particular French women were active prostitutes in the United States or Canada. As in the previous books, the photographs range from fully-dressed prostitutes to those who have shed all their clothes. The photographs are not pornographic, the ladies are just not wearing clothes. Each photograph is accompanied by a quote about prostitutes or prostitution. These quotes come from a variety of sources. Some of the passages are serious while others are tongue-in-cheek. Although many of the quotes are from contemporary sources, they apply to the time period represented in this volume. comments - |
