If the coyness of classic pin-up style photography only leaves you wanting to see more ... well, that's the point: as itinterant musician-turned-Frank DeBlase explains, "The sensuality and the subtlety in classic pin-up photography is infinitely more powerful than cheaper endeavors that clutter magazine racks everywhere, Genuine gorgeousity tempered with a tease is undeniable in all its 35mm knockout glory." That said, we'd really love to see more of some of Frank's models like bathing beauty Thary and hotrod honey Christine. But maybe sometimes that "genuine gorgeousity tempered with a tease" is reward enough.
