Kurzbeschreibung
TASCHEN veröffentlicht bis Mitte 2005 die erste Geschichte der „Herrenmagazine“ mit tausenden, auf höchstem Niveau recherchierten, informativen Abbildungen und Texten. In den insgesamt 6 Bänden, die den Zeitraum von 1900 bis 1980 dokumentieren, geht es um einen der schönsten visuellen Reize dieser Welt: um den leicht bis unbekleideten, weiblichen Körper, den die abermillionen weltweit gedruckten Magazine in ihrer großen Vielfalt immer und immer wieder abgebildet haben. Der Inhalt dieser Bände verspricht natürlich eine ganze Menge Aufregung für jeden Geschmack, lehrt uns aber gleichzeitig auch eine Menge Respekt für die unzähligen Illustratoren und Gestalter dieser Magazine, die oft ihr ganzes gestalterisches Können in die Schlacht warfen, Freiheiten im Design erhielten, die ansonsten im traditionellen Geschäft nicht möglich waren, mit ihren Ideen dann aber leider meist von einer großen Öffentlichkeit unentdeckt blieben. Volume I: 1900 –1957 Verboten: Jahre in Illegalität und strenger Zensur

Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
For the first fifty years of the last century there were several publishers in Europe and America doing their best to give male readers the magazines they really wanted and in the same countries the authorities did their (mostly successful) best to deny them the pleasure.
Dian Hanson in this first volume of her extensive survey covers the origins of the (slightly) sexy magazines in France and Germany and they look rather stylish with heavy use of creative illustrations and photography, the US equivalent, thanks to the past activities of super censor Anthony Comstock, look very down market products. The seventeen chapters cover every aspect of the adult publication market, the naturist titles, model study magazines 'For serious artists only', spicy pulps of the thirties, detective, humour, cabaret magazines and strangely even a chapter devoted to Tijuana Bibles, hardly magazines as they were only eight stapled pages, two inches by four with crudely drawn pornographic cartoons depicting celebrities of the day.
The appeal of this book are the images, nearly a thousand of them (covers and some inside spreads) almost all in colour and this is an area that I found rather disappointing, I would have expected a better paper for what is basically a visual book. I gave the second volume four stars because of this. As it is I expect this first book will become the standard title about the subject.

A MAJOR oversight in Volume 1 of this six-volume work
3. August 2007
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I already have Volume 2 of Dian Hanson's encyclopedic _History of Men's Magazines_, detailing what I believe to be the golden age of that genre (the 1950's), so I was really looking forward to getting Volume 1. This volume is presented just as beautifully as the other five volumes in the series, with lots of gorgeous full-page color and B&W photos.
However, there is a very big oversight, not to say error, in the material contained in this volume. Let me explain; Volume 1 bills itself as covering the history of men's magazines from 1900 to the period immediately after World War II. OK. So where are all the pictures from 1900 to the beginning of the 1920's? Certainly, there weren't very many magazines specializing in girlie art or photography before the Roaring Twenties, but France did have several, most notably the famous "La Vie Parisienne", which started publishing in, I believe, the 1870's and ran almost continuously for seven or eight decades. There was a LOT of first-class girlie art in that 'zine from the 1870's to the 1910's (including some classic art produced during World War I) that Hanson could have located and reproduced. Also, what about the Gibson Girl in "Life"? That's not strictly "girlie" art within the parameters set by this series, to be sure, but she was such an iconic figure that she should have gotten at least a couple of pictures. Or what about all the "French postcards" of the Gay Nineties and after? Those directly adumbrated the later girlie magazines, and also go unrepresented, at least in the pictures.
Furthermore, Hanson errs seriously in putting a large number of pictures from the 1950's and 1960's in a volume that is expressly _not_ dedicated to those decades (the 1960's, in fact, get two volumes later on in the series). She may have intended to show how girlie photography developed over the decades, but there was plenty of room later on in the series to do that. The space misappropriated to those pictures would much better have been allocated to the kind of imagery I described in the previous paragraph.
Sorry, Dian. I really like Volume 2. Volume 1, however, is a rather disappointing introduction to what should have been a definitive reference work on a little-studied genre.
