Product Description Say no to silicone: The greatest natural breasts of our times 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 420 pages of this book contain the most beautiful and provocative black and white and color 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 editor: Dian Hanson is a twenty-five-year veteran of men's magazine publishing. She began her career at Puritan magazine in 1976 and went on to edit a variety of titles, including Partner, Oui, Hooker, Outlaw Biker, and Juggs magazines. In 1987 she took over the ?60s title Leg Show and transformed it into the world's best-selling fetishpublication. Most recently, she authored TASCHEN's Terryworld, Tom of Finland: The Comic Collection and History of Men's Magazines six-volume set.

A Massive Collection of Great Photos! May 6, 2008 This is the ultimate coffee table book! A big, beautiful book of big, beautiful, all-natural breasts. This giant collection of nudes (420 pages!!!) runs the gamut from 1940's cheesecake to 1980's glamour. And every model is all-natural and silicone-free. This book is an unabashed celebration of curvaceous beauty that almost anyone will enjoy, but connoisseurs of well endowed women will absolutely love. Fans of historical erotica and vintage photography will also love this collection. But do not think that this is just for old-timers. The high quality images and beautiful women that are featured here will astound both young and old alike.

Well this is a great book and since I put it out on the coffee table, my 10 year son has not put it down, I'm so glad to see him reading!!!!
bookoboobs November 25, 2007 A pretty fun and tasteful salute to the twin moons of paradise. The size of the book does some justice to the subject matter at hand. Just the ticket for the boobophile in your life.
Dynamic Juxtapositions November 15, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
There has always been a certain allure of women endowed with large natural, well you get the picture. James Stewart in Alfred Hitchcock's 1958 thriller VERTIGO asks his ex-fiancé, played by Barbara Bel Geddes, sitting at her drawing board what is she drawing. She answers that it is a bra designed by an engineer based on the cantilever principal, something he thought up in his spare time! "Sort of a hobby you might say," comments Stewart as he gives a wry hint of a smile. And so it goes. The focal point of this book has always given those enamored by such physical endowments a twinkle in the eye or the hint of that wry smile when given that precious opportunity to gaze upon that prominent element of the buxom female form. This book represents a true art form and is presented in a refined high-end publication printed and bound with the finest media available. The photographs are an inimitable representation of the buxom female as envisioned and seen from the through the mid twentieth century. If you are of the mind to enjoy and take delight in such inclinations of this natural female human form this book should certainly be considered.
