is the
history of unapologetic fun aimed not at the head, not at the heart or even the stomach, but south of all three.
Beginning with the birth of the striptease in the midth century and culminating with its garish heyday in thes, this book charts the evolution of the infamous bump and grind, which is, at its simplest, a pretty girl in a pretty dress.
. . and then not. The only fully illustrated book available on the subject, Striptease tells the history of this provocative form of stagecraft from its birth in vaudeville and burlesque through the "take it all off" attitude for which the term "striptease" was coined.
Along the way, the book highlights such performers as Isadora Duncan, Loie Fuller, Maud Allen, Gypsy Rose Lee, Tempest Storm, and Blaze Starr, The witty and wellinformed text is illustrated with an array of titillating images, including neverbeforepublished ephemera and illicitly photographed performances in progress, Whether revealing ankles or breasts, playing peekaboo or going the full monty, Striptease pays tribute to the women who made a vocation of their sex appeal and shimmied their way into American culture.
