"Nice photos, needs more attention to detail" according to phoneyfresh. Really cool book with beautiful photos. Only quip is that some of the photos are clearly from the 70's and 80's. You can tell just by the ladies hair and clothes. Schiffer should really take their quality up a notch. I little better layout and design sense along with better quality paper and materials and their books would be amazing.. Rare quality images of the headliners! This is a wonderful collection of rare 8x10 promo images for Burlesque stars of the 50's and 60's. Excellent quality B&W photos, a few have been autographed, great that these were so well preserved.

I would have preferred that this book be a hardcover, as it seems cheap and a little flimsy. There is not a whole lot of text or historical information in this book. Otherwise, the pictures are beautiful.
