Leo Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Is there anyone else at High Heel Place who is a fan of the work of John Willie? Leo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris100575 Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Having just Googled him, yes. However I think most of his art would be regarded as unsuitable for here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spikesmike Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Leo Irving Klaw was another photographer and film maker. Mr. Klaw photographed bondage scenes of Betty Page and others in the burlisque business along with John Willie. Yes I am a fan. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris100575 Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I'd heard of Eric Stanton and Irving Klaw before and like their work. Bettie Page was hot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benno Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I once had an argument with an old flatmate about pornography after finding loads of his dodgy 'women vomiting salamis' stuff on my Mac. I told him he had no taste and in my view porn should be hand drawn and from the 1940s 50s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris100575 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 On a loosely related note, I'm looking for a pack of pin-up playing cards, but want the 40s "bomber girl" style. I've not found any yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pata Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I am a fan and of those others mentioned too. Though it is all more a fetish direction, right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roniheels Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I remember right after college getting hold of the book "The Adventures of Sweet Gwendoline." I was so impressed with the artwork of the book as it was truly explicit and very erotic. I'm sure though John Willie's obsession with bondage and domination raised many eyebrows during the time of his publications. If you think about it, his sketching of the high heels worn by the women in his drawings probably inspired many shoe designers then and now.

Leo Posted March 31, 2011 Author Share Posted March 31, 2011 I have an Eric Stanton drawing as a tattoo on my right arm :-) I like the work of John Willie, but not quite that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
