1940's Pin-up art

A book of paintings of attractive females from the 1940's. PG rated. the cover is typical of the women shown inside the book; lots of long, shapely legs, clad in stockings. 14 pages; 3 simple pop-ups; 3 automatic movable figures and 3 pull tabs. I enjoyed looking at this book. The 3 automatic movable figures and the 3 pull tabs are very well done. I was originally attracted to this book because "Pop-Up" is featured in the title, and I collect pop-up books. However, this book only contains 3 simple pop-ups; if you're a pop-up book collector, this book will probably disappoint you.
