Elmer Batters does not create fancy, elaborate sets for his models, nor are his models particularly good looking. However, he does know how to pose them (not sexually graphic) to get the best angle on their feet and legs, and from that level his work is honest, straightforward, and very well done. If your fetish runs in this direction, this book (and all the Elmer books) are must-haves.

If you're into this sort of erotic photography (as I am, having discovered Batters' work in LEG SHOW magazine -- BTW, God is a woman and Her name is Dian Hanson, say it with me, guys...), then getting a book of pure Batters photography is a must. But read the specs on this paperback book carefully! The book is smaller than a deck of cards. In fact, its pages are about the size of the screen of a PalmPilot.

I didn't read the specs very carefully and was hoping for a full-size paperback, not the PostItNote-sized book that I was shipped.

Buyer beware!

That said, it's the only book I know of [other than his CARUSCA SITTINGS similar paperback] that features all Batters' leg/feet photos, and, as I said up front, if you like his work, you know you sort of need to have this. (Who knows, maybe the palm sizing is useful ;-)

I suppose men will think this book is just for them. But it will also appeal to those of us who like wearing stockings and lingerie. It will give us some ideas of how to do it!

HI, this book is my BIBLE and I am not especially a leg/foot guy at all, I mean I like it all but when a photographer really loves something, then you can't go wrong. Shot mostly in Southern California area, San pedro, Long Beach, the dessert east of LA, and some in northern California as well. The layout approved by Elmer himself before he died. The pictures were not cropped after Elmer finished his work, they are as intended. And the large hard cover is a brown 70's cordoroy type sofa texture. Pure style. Priceless.

This book has some great pic's of legs, stockings, and feet, but please please notice the size is SMALL, LITERALLY 3x4 INCHES! If you are looking for a Christmas Tree decoration, this is perfect, but a coffee table book it isn't! Hopefully there are other books out there that exhibit Elmer Batters quality work.

Very good. I've always loved Batters work. I only wish the pictures had some documentation. Dates, names, locations, ect. Still, you can't go worng with this book. Does anyone know if any of his VHS tapes are still around?

I thought this portfolio was put together quite well. The pictures are distinct in their own class. Many would look at this book as a form of pornography, it may have been for it's time. But you have to consider what is printed in todays world. Elmer Batters pictures are pure, honest, and show beautiful women in the way that nudity should be shown

great book for a leg and foot fan.

Perhaps you prefer piggies to peaches!? If so, you could not buy a better book!
