Sobre este artículo
Point Magazines, Inc, 1957. Softcover. Good. December, 1957 issue of Male Point of View featuring a cover photo of mid-century pin-up model, sometime film and TV and actress and ultimately tragic figure June McCall - an iconic example of Hollywood's early exploitation of beautiful women. At 17, McCall was a Vargas Girl, later the focus of over 300 cheesecake cover photos occasionally snapped by legendary photographers such as Andre de Dienes, Bernard of Hollywood, Earl Moran, Tom Kelley, et al, occasional B movie actress (notably in the SF camp classic Queen of Outer Space), frequent TV guest and chronic alcoholic, getting outrageously drunk at her first wedding and continuing to drink heavily throughout her short life, ultimately dying at the age of 55 from alcoholic liver disease in a Van Nuys, California hospital. Generally, McCall passed up few opportunities to put herself into a position of being seen. By her own admission, she said, "I want to be a great actress. That's why I'll pose in anything they want me to, as long as it gets my name in the papers." McCall was best known for her striking red hair tumbling in curls to her shoulders, her turquoise eyes, a perfect figure (36-26-36), a constitutional distaste for posing nude and her signature fish net stockings. Of special note in this issue are two articles, "A Barefoot Guide [for boys] to Sex With Women" and "Name Dropping Is His Business," the latter featuring legendary Hollywood agent Henry Wilson, who assembled a stable of gay actors as clients, including Rock Hudson and Tab Hunter. 68 pp. 6" x 4 1/4". Tight, unmarked copy with light shelf wear and faint crease to upper right corner of front panel. A presentable copy of a collectible mid-century cheesecake publication. Photographs of or additional information about this item are available on request. All inquiries answered promptly.
