This volume is a historic retrospective of the erotic illustrations published in US magazines from the 1950s to 1990s. Although they were freely available, their often closeted readers put them under their mattresses. ‘Stroke’ rediscovers these treasures and puts them together with vividly told stories and previously unpublished material.
The book was compiled by Hunter O’Hanian, director of the Leslie-Lohman Museum in New York, and artist legend Robert W. Richards. It features works of over 30 artists, including such luminaries as Tom of Finland, Harry Bush, Michael Kirwan, and George Quaintance.
Author: Robert. W Richards and Hunter O'Hanian (eds).
