Dames, Dolls, Delinquents is a collection of sexy pulp covers from the 50 s and 60 s That s all the description you needD is 223 pictures of pulp fiction covers featuring women in various states of undress, much like Gary Lovisi s other book that I ve read, Bad Girls Need Love too While the books have similar subject matter, I only noticed a few covers overlapping between editions.This book has quite a variety of covers, from lesbian pulp to fetish pulp to the Hard Case Crime series It s fascina [...]

Nice resource for old pulp book covers, but then there are the introductions to each chapter Let s play a drinking game Every time the author uses the words sexy , sultry , sassy and sensual take a shot By page 50 yer gonna be sssshnockered for ssssure.

Tons of fantastic pulp paperback cover art for new and old collectors alike I ve been collecting vintage paperback for years and there s some title s shown here that I ve never even seen A great collection of images and a fantastic resource if you need a reference guide.

Nice collection of images Haphazard commentary.
