As many of you know, one of my favorite
pinups involves such senseless brutality,
Elvgren's The Bear Facts (under the Enoch
Bolles pinup). This
is my take on The Bear Facts, and the
role of Polar Bears in pinup art, in the
21st century.

I love getting
tip-offs from my readers. I received this
one, from Ariel, to my email box:
Hello,
I love your website! I too am obsessed and
enthralled by pinup! Anyway, even though
this may be a bit too late (or really
early) to be helpful, I know you were
looking really hard for different kinds of
St. Patrick's Day, Easter, and Thanksgiving
pinups. I know of some really good ones
that you missed on your list that I thought
you might be interested in. Anyway, here
they are:
It’s Bunny Mania at The Pinup Blog!
Easter leaves me no choice but to go bunny
hunting across the web. I bring you the
finest bunny bombshells: Be vewy vewy
quiet…
The Holidays are coming and it’s time for
a good, old fashioned count-down of the 10
best St. Patrick’s Day Pinups. Put your green
shades on and have a sexy St. Patrick’s
day.
The old cheesecake masters didn’t
really use to draw anything special for St.
Patrick’s Day. I could have listed all the
pinups dressed in green, I could find, but
green was a popular color, back then. So I
pulled up my sleeves and went out to find
specifically-made St. Patrick’s pinups. It’s
not sophisticated, but it’s a delight.
A few good months
ago I wrote an article about
pinups and diversity. A prominent
shortage of African American pinups bugged
me. So I was pretty ecstatic when I was
contact by my current model. Black and
voluptuous, she made The Pinup Shop truly
diverse.
In the spirit of diversity and the up-coming
St. Patrick's Day, I thought I'd retaliate to
all the "Kiss
Me I'm Irish" T-shirts on CafePress
and give the non-Irish a chance to be
loved.
Love it or hate it, Valentine's day is
coming up. Be prepared with this bitter-sweet
cheesecake.
Valentine's Day isn't for everyone. Some of
us love it and celebrate it with our beloved,
and some of us spend it sitting alone, in a
dark corner of a bar, muttering bitterly how
Valentine's sucks. This design captures the
duality of the love/hate relationship most of
us have with Valentine's day.
Check Out My Special Valentine's
Design!
Love it or hate it, tell
everybody how you feel about it with the
'Valentine's is for Pussies' bitter-sweet
pinup. These are just 3 examples out of 97
different items. So Come on down to The
Pinup Shop and get yourself or your
valentine a special Valentine's day
gift.

Tattoos, piercing and brightly dyed hair
is what the neo-pinup girl is all about.
Christmas time is a time of giving and I want
to give some of my favorite neo-pinups a
tribute. Merry Christmas!
The pinup
revival is not about doing it like Vargas.
Today’s pinups are only a reminder of what
pinups used to look like. They have their own
special edge, with the tattoos, the piercing
and the brightly dyed hair. Maybe, in fifty
years- when the next pinup revival comes,
instead of the Betty Page hair-cut, they’ll
all have pink or red hair and body paint?
I was really hoping on a top 10 list of
pinups, for Thanksgiving. Once again, my
dreams of listing have been brutally
shattered by the sad realities: Thanks giving
isn't sexy enough for pinups. There are
almost no Thanksgiving bombshells, out
there.
Yes, I love doing
lists for this blog, because it gives me
a chance to dive into a massive search
for retro girlie art, in Google. I ogle
sexy, half naked women, for hours on
end, under the pretext of work. (jealous
much ) This Thanksgiving, my
work has been unproductive.
Halloween is huge for pinups (sadly the
correlation between the commercialization of
holidays and the growth of pop culture is
undeniable). So I set out to find this
Halloween's latest cheesecake
attractions.
Happy Halloween Everybody!
For this Halloween, I thought I'd celebrate
with my top 10 favorite Halloween web pinups.
From costumes, to art, to photography, the
web holds endless possibilities for the
Halloween pinup lover:
Are you a pinup lover? Do you find yourself
mysteriously drawn to this retro girlie art? Do
you find yourself at the computer, at night,
scouring the internet for more pictures? You're
not alone.
