Description:

The Victorian and Edwardian cabarets, music halls & vaudeville theaters of Europe and America were famous for their musical spectacles. London, New York, Berlin & Paris each had dozens of variety venues where groups of sexy girl starlets performed in sequined, feathery, sometimes revealing Art Nouveau or Art Deco costumes. The Folies Bergères, Moulin Rouge, Ambassadeurs, Casino de Paris, Ziegfeld... Some of these pretty ladies, the stage divas & beauty queens of the day, became stars whose legendary names remain familiar: Mata Hari, Jane Avril, Gaby Deslys, Lili Damita, Josephine Baker... performing dances such as the French Cancan. Now you can enjoy a huge compendium of early artistes & chorus girls as a digital ebook album, with added rolling slideshow function. Over 100 images, many in beautiful hand-tinted color (no nudes). Fascinating to browse, or a great branding statement or alternative to a screensaver. ** Revised, improved and extended, April 2007 NOW ONLY $3.49!**

This slideshow, while very nicely done, was a great disappointment to me. The author states that there are no nudes, and yet more than 50% of the photos are nudes! If you are looking for costume ideas, fugeddaboudit! I think there are only about 3 usable photos, one of which is on the "cover". Now, if you are looking for great pics of Josephine Baker, and other nudes/semi nudes of performers from about 1895-1925, then this is the book for you. Otherwise, it is not as described.
