What if the Internet existed during WW2?
Lileks says about a website:
This makes me weep, it’s so good. Probably not safe for work, since it’s a pin-up model’s site, but dang, that’s some wonderful web design. And it’s everything I hate – tiny pop-up windows, embedded music, small pictures. I don’t care: this is what the web would have looked like in 1944, and it’s fantastic.
He's right; the design is fantastic, capturing the feel of the late 1940s/early 1950s perfectly. I especially like the way you contact the model. Despite his caution, it's worksafe -- none of the photos shows any of the naughty bits. Make sure your speakers are on to get the full effect.
These guys designed the web site; take some time and scroll through their portfolio. They've done some extraordinary work.

Raw sexism. Just as I thought "Out on a Limb," you really are from the dark ages. Why yearn for the "good old days" when women were objectified sex tarts waiting to be rescued by that dashing you man in the leather bomber jacket? Give me a break. I like my girls strong and confident.
