DESCRIPTION:
A compendium of highlights from John Willie's esoteric bondage magazine, "Bizarre", which was published erratically between 1946 and 1959. All 26 cover images and a selection of pages from each issue are included. A wild bonanza of bizarre ideas, concepts, and costumes.
Much ado about little Taschen's collection, sampled from issues of John Willie's BIZARRE, is a delighful look back at the work of a man who was in the forefront of eroding the 1950's, Ozzie and Harriet, twin-beds-in-the dark, missionary-style attitudes about sexuality. Back in the day, this was hot stuff, 'the-kind-men-like', (pre-Playboy) underground publishing. But be warned, it's a book more from historians than p. "Good history book" according to Carla Johnson. This is a great history of fetish thru the years, well worth the $$$. must be bizzare or seeking the true meaning to enjoy William Wagner You must be bizzare or seeking the true meaning to enjoy it
