Presents Bruce Weber's "Endless Summer Saint Tropez In The USA: Seventeen Models, Dozens of Swimsuits And A Flowing Supply of Cristal Equals Twenty-Six Sexy Pages of The Hottest Pool Party Ever". The very first appearance of Bruce Weber's work at his peak, mature style in the one magazine that helped launch and propel his career in the late 1970's. "Bruce Weber, one of the greatest photographers of our time, has returned to these pages after a twenty-one year absence. Bruce's work for this magazine helped establish the look and the spirit of GQ. It was so ahead of its time it defined the visual frontier of the culture. Also, it was so hot and sexy" (GQ Magazine). Weber pays tribute to the new Saint Tropez, South Beach in Miami, Florida, by harking back to and lovingly evoking the original Saint Tropez of Serge Gainsbourg and Brigitte Bardot. Page after page, all twenty-six of them, of practically naked and uninhibited men and women having fun - and suggestively having sex - in America's legendary beach. "The beach is one of the best things we got. 'Cause it's not what you have on, but what you have not" (Jonathan Richman). For those who have everything else by BW, this is an absolute "must-have" collectible, not just memorabilia, item for Bruce Weber collectors. This GQ "Bruce Weber" Magazine Special is a great Issue. This is one of few copies of the Issue still available online, is still in the publisher's original shrinkwrap, and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: The few remaining copies available online have serious flaws because the magazine was pored over. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce copy thus. Bruce Weber's "O Rio De Janeiro", the sexiest photography book ever published, was selected as one of the "Seminal Photography Books of the 20th Century" in the "Book of 101 Books". One of the finest photographers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER BRUCE WEBER TITLES IN OUR CATALOG).
