Publisher's Synopsis
Nudist, or naturist, magazines comprising photographs of naked men and women enjoying outdoor activities first appeared as far back as the beginning of the 20th century. Nudist culture boomed in the 1950s and early 1960s, following a landmark ruling which permitted such material to be freely distributed via the US mail. Jean le Baptiste has assembled from his own collection a stunning array of vintage photographs from these magazines: a collection which takes us back to the unashamed, unclothed splendour of more innocent decades in the sun.
