Richard Kern, Action
Simply sexy: Richard Kern’s gloriously natural girls
Richard Kern likes real women: unpretentious, unadorned, and definitely undressed. Those who
love Kern know each book is an invitation to join him in his privileged world where natural young
women share their most intimate moments. Richard has never lost his boyish curiosity with girls
and their secrets, so instead of posing them in sterile sets he follows them through the house—or
rather his New York apartment—from backyard to kitchen to bathroom to bedroom, capturing
every sexy and embarrassing moment. Action is his most revealing book yet. For 280 pages we
careen through the life of Kern, accompanied by dozens of energetic, fun-loving, clothes-dropping
exhibitionists. “Young women want to show the world they’re not like their man-hating women’s
lib mothers,” a Kern model once told me, and these girls certainly get the point across. To further
assist the young ladies in their rebellion, the book includes an hour-long DVD of original Kern film
with an exclusive musical score by Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth. Way to stick it to the Mom,
ladies! And thank you, Richard, you lucky dog.

The Big Book of Breasts

The Golden Hills before the Silicone Valley: Three decades of the world’s most spectacular natural
curves

Some call it the American obsession, but men everywhere recognize the hypnotic allure of a large and
shapely breast. In The Big Book of Breasts, Dian Hanson explores the origins of mammary madness
through three decades of natural big-breasted nudes. Starting with the World War II Bosom-Mania
that spawned Russ Meyer, Howard Hughes’s The Outlaw and Frederick’s of Hollywood, Dian guides
you over, around, and in between the dangerous curves of infamous models including Michelle
Angelo, Candy Barr, Virginia Bell, Joan Brinkman, Lorraine Burnett, Lisa De Leeuw, Uschi Digard,
Candye Kane, Jennie Lee, Sylvia McFarland, Margaret Middleton, Paula Page, June Palmer, Roberta
Pedon, Rosina Revelle, Candy Samples, Tempest Storm, Linda West, June Wilkinson, Julie Wills,
and dozens more, including Guinness World Record holder Norma Stitz, possessor of the World’s
Largest Natural Breasts.

The 396 pages of this book contain the most beautiful and provocative photos ever created of these
iconic women, plus nine original interviews, including the first with Tempest Storm and Uschi Digard
in over a decade, and the last with Candy Barr before her untimely death in 2005. In a world where
silicone is now the norm, these spectacular real women stand as testament that nature knows best.

The secret art of an English gentleman

Thomas Leycester Poulton was an English magazine and medical book illustrator, born in 1897.
Upon his death in 1963 it was discovered he was also a prolific and imaginative erotic artist who
produced hundreds of sketches and finished drawings of women proudly and exuberantly
displaying themselves in ways shocking to conservative post-war Britain. The archive remained
hidden until the 1990s, when a collector of erotic artifacts passed it on to a fellow collector willing
to share it with the world. Though Tom Poulton’s work tells us much about English society
between 1948 and 1963, there is a universal quality to these images of joyous, uninhibited sexuality
that transcends time and place.
