100 Years of Erotica : An International Portfolio of Erotic Photography from 1845-1945

by Paul Aratow

In the days before adult magazines were available, erotic postcards and photographs circulated surreptitiously throughout the United States. This fascinating book collects the best of those images -- from elaborate studio tableaux to amateur snapshots, from high romanticism to raunchy naturalism -- offering a unique catalog of our forebears' erotic sensibilities.
