Ward (1918-1998) was America's most prolific pin-up artist, from his sultry WWII Torchy, to Scorchy of the 1990s. This gigantic, well-researched tribute draws on over 600 illustrations and interviews with family, friends, employers, and models. Ward's women reek of glamour and glitz. The opera length gloves, the diamond earrings that dangle to the shoulders, the stiletto heels, the tight satin dresses, the pronounced cleavage...it's all there. It's the best eye candy money can buy. Superbly reproduced, often from the original artwork and unpublished works.
