Book excerpt: When the documentary Bettie Page Reveals All was released in 2013, it would have been easy to assume we would never again hear directly from the adored icon. After all, the film is narrated by Bettie Mae Page herself, and she spills on lots of subjects that she had previously kept private–even in her authorized biography–though she does maintain her own decades-long, no-photos rule in the movie. She loathed the effects of aging, said it made her sad to see her own celebrity idols when they were older, and wanted people to remember her as she looked in her pinup days. Fortunately for the hordes of Bettie fans worldwide, a bounty of unreleased Bettie material awaits. For years–since before Bettie’s death from heart failure in December 2008 at the age of 85–boxes and file folders of Bettie mementoes have been gathering dust in the closets of Bettie’s nephew’s house. Ron Brem, a musician living in Bakersfield, California, is the only child of Bettie’s beloved sister, Goldie Jane Page. Bettie never had kids, other than three stepchildren during one of her four marriages to three men (she married one twice). Goldie was also an aspiring model and actress but later settled into housewifery before eventually becoming an art teacher and gallery owner. She died during the summer of 2004, but in the several years before her death, she had carefully stored heaps of incredible family photos, the bulk of which feature Bettie as either the sole subject or part of the shot. None of these hundreds of photos has ever been published until now, and few people even know they exist. Goldie also saved approximately 29 letters from Bettie spanning the years 1949 to 2000, ranging in length from note-size to 18 full pages, which tell the unknown story of Bettie’s “lost years” following her retirement from modeling in 1957.

Book excerpt: Irving Klaw was the legendary New York-based mail order merchant who from 1949 onwards produced thousands of films, photographic sets and printed booklets based on themes of fetishism, bondage, and sado-masochism. Although Klaw's most enduring artistic legacy arguably lies in his pioneering publishing work in the field of bondage illustration, he will always be best-known for his discovery and promotion of the iconic bondage model who went on to be famous throughout the cool world -- Betty Page. Through thousands of BDSM-themed photographs, as well as numerous short films, Page would become not only the superstar of the Klaw catalogue but, retrospectively, the most iconic fetish model of all time. THE WILD WORLD OF BETTY PAGE gathers together 80 classic photographs of Page, never before published in a single volume, which cover almost every aspect of her modelling work with Klaw. From sexy pin-ups in lingerie and fetish-wear to more intense scenes of sado-masochism, bondage, spanking and cat-fights, this anthology presents the essential Betty Page. The photographs selected also feature many of Klaw's other regular bondage models.

Book excerpt: “Scrupulously researched . . . An eloquent fan, Foster brings insight into Page’s recent revival as a sex symbol.” —Entertainment Weekly TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY EDITION UPDATED BY THE AUTHOR WITH A NEW EPILOGUE She has been called the most photographed model in history. From her modest beginnings in Nashville to her legacy as a cult figure, here is the true story of America’s iconic pinup queen, legendary Playboy centerfold Bettie Page—including her stormy marriages, her trial for attempted murder, and her decade-long isolation in a California mental institution. During the 1950s, Bettie set hearts ablaze with her killer curves and girl-next-door smile. Yet at the height of her popularity, with a promising acting career before her, she walked away. For more than thirty years, Bettie stayed hidden from the public eye, though she lived on in her fans’ memories, much like Marilyn Monroe and James Dean. Journalist Richard Foster became the first reporter to contact Page during her long absence, and the first to tell her full story. Using interviews with those who knew her, and filled with uncommon knowledge and insights, The Real Bettie Page reveals both the fun flirt and fashion-forward counter-culture icon whose style continues to inspire today, as well as the intriguing and complex, flesh-and-blood woman behind her smiling photos. Includes classic and rare color and black-and-white photos

Download or read book Bettie written by Irving Klaw and published by . This book was released on 2016-10-15 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BETTIE! : The Incomparable Bettie Page Archives of Irving Klaw is a very carefully curated collection of exquisitely reproduced photographs. Never before have so many of Klaw's photographs been published in a single book. The photographs include some of the most iconic photographs ever taken of Bettie as well as some never before published photographs of the legendary 1950's pinup queen.The photographer, Irving Klaw, was noted as one of America's first fetish photographers and Bettie as America's first famous bondage model. From 1952 through 1958 the pair worked together weekly in Irving's New York studio. Irving was played by Chris Bauer opposite Gretchen Mol in the 2005 film, "The Notorious Bettie Page". The Kefauver Hearings of the Senate Subcommittee on Juvenile Delinquency in 1957 marked the beginning of the end of Irving's mail-order photography business in New York. The investigation tried to link pornography to juvenile delinquency. The McCarthy-style hearings branded Irving as a degenerate pornographer and ushered in a new wave of media censorship. Bettie was also summoned to the hearings but was never called to testify (parts of the hearings are recreated in the film The Notorious Bettie Page). She retired from modeling soon afterwards. Because of the political, social and legal pressures he faced, Irving closed his storefront business and burned many of his negatives. It is estimated that more than 80% of the negatives were destroyed. However, his sister Paula secretly kept some of the better images, which are now reproduced like never before in this exclusive book.
