No discussion of the women of World War II would complete without a photo thread dedicated to the more aesthetically pleasing of our sex. Without futher delay, here's Rita Hayworth to kick things off!

Glad you like guys! Its not really my thing, so research has been slow moving. I thought there would be some really cool website that tracked the history of the pin-up girl and could pinch some pics and history, but no.

Heather,

Things may have been different in the 1940's but beauty was beauty. Pin-up girls helped morale and a happier soldier or sailor is going to a better one. That also was as true then as it is now.

I agree Jim! As kid watching WWII flicks, I enjoyed the moments about the pin-ups girls in the movies becuase it always generated so much enthusiasm and happiness among the characters! On that note....

I don't know who Veronica Lake is, but she's a sure bet to improve morale anywhere!

All I know is that she was an actress. I don't even know if she was any good!

Love pin ups. I have an extensive collection of Vargas, McPhearson, Rust, etc. alas, most are not appropriate for posting.

Veronica Lake was extremely popular in the fourty's n' she did a couple of movies that managed to make her an icon amoung both men n' women in the US.

It would be great if you could post a couple of appropriate ones!
