Description: Marseille, André Frère Éditions, 2014. 26 x 25.5 cm. 184 pp. Hardcover. Illustrated in colour throughout. - Marie Baronnet compiles a skilful and sincere portrait of the forgotten entrepreneurs of the American Dream, the women who have conquered their bodies and independence, their sex and their economy, and they have paid the price.

With names like Eartha Quake, Bambi Jones, Isis Starr, Velvet Ice, Val Valentine, Lovey Goldmine and Dixie Evans, these quintessential showgirls versed in the art of the strip tease herald from Las Vegas and beyond, their lustre and fiery spirit undiminished by age. - Cover a bit worn on extremities, else a good copy
