Book Description

Series: Running Press Miniatures | Publication Date: February 21, 2002

Bright, lurid, and enormously entertaining, the covers of adult pulp novels published from the 1940s through the 1960s constitute a pop-art genre of enduring appeal. This Miniature Edition™ collection of 60 pulp-fiction book covers includes such kitschy classics as Tomcat in Tights, She Couldn't Be Good, and Sex-A-Go-Go.

3.0 out of 5 stars tiny perhaps a stocking stuffer or a gag, January 19, 2005

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Bad Girls Of Pulp Fiction (Running Press Miniatures) (Hardcover)

...not even the best selected pulp covers, compounded by the fact that the dimensions are so small; the book comes with a cute little trinket (a golden high-heeled shoe) which suggests to me that it might make a cute party gift, certainly not useful for reading

This review is from: Bad Girls Of Pulp Fiction (Running Press Miniatures) (Hardcover)

This is one of those tiny little books you usually see at the counter of the book store. For being so small it has a lot in it. Basically, what you get is the covers of old pulp magazines. It's not heavy reading. ;)

This nice little book fits in the palm of your hand. It's interesting, but more of a novelty item than anything else.
