I'll be among the first to buy it and promote it.Thomas Haller Buchananhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09278003392092477845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7701969497419397329.post-61945293056417722822009-08-17T08:08:39.081-07:002009-08-17T08:08:39.081-07:00I'll bet the swash-buckling girls were the Ama...I'll bet the swash-buckling girls were the Amazon-warrior version of the freedom-seeking, thrill-hunting, convention-busting men.

Thanks for the information and cultural...Hi Thomas,<br />Thanks for the information and cultural context. I think it was Collector's Press that did the pirate book. As far as why the pirate theme was so popular, I guess you could ask the same question now. Finally, I have to admit there is one other Bolles pirate girl, this one an add for underthings that nobody has seen and it is amazing. If the book doesn't come to be I'll post it on the blog. Either way, I hope I won't have bto wait for long.Jack Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06003755708951409832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7701969497419397329.post-29264165897920059512009-08-16T17:18:59.280-07:002009-08-16T17:18:59.280-07:00I can't explain the phenomenon, per se, of lad...I can't explain the phenomenon, per se, of lady pirates, but it seemed like society on a certain cultural level couldn't seem to get enough. Of course Hollywood was probably the epicenter with Fairbanks and all that daring do. But costume parties were overflowing with pirates of all kinds. Broadway vanities and revues had whole chorus lines of swashbuckling cuties. It was a great escape and, yow, with all those cute girls, artists couldn't help themselves. Wasn't there a book that collected all that girl pirate art? This cover of Bolles was one of my favorites and I've been hoping for a larger scan like you posted.
