Before Photoshop: Pin-Up Girls

Aren't these before and after pin-up photos absolutely fascinating? Interesting how things haven't changed much in society- we'll always have the people in ads enhanced through the eyes of a designer. The only technical change is the use photoshop instead of illustration. And, of course, the overall idea of beauty has changed a bit too. I will admit, it's refreshing see women with real shape modeling for these shoots. They were obviously enhanced as well, but all for the sake of "fantasy"... at least they weren't expected to look like that in real life (unlike our models now who look even thinner in real life than they do in their photos!) Check out more before and after pin-up photos HERE. So cool.

Awesome! I think 'Mad Men' is making a little progress in the 'curvy is cool' direction. Who wouldn't want a secretary like June?

This is purely magnificent.
Unfortunately the 'HERE' link doesn't work.. any chance of fixing that up?
