It is also the first to include a generous selection of his vivid original drawings and his finest work for IPlayboy\/I magazine. Along with these highly sough-after pictures, the book features early unpublished works from the 1920s, unpublished sketches and watercolors rendered for IEsquire\/I, the celebrated Legacy Nudes, and more.pThe decade-by-decade narrative essay and captions are by BReid Stewart Austin\/B, who worked with Vargas as his IPlayboy\/Ieditor for nearly twenty years and who wrote the bestselling Vargas biography in 1978 with the artist.p\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0316077690\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0316077690.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Reid Stewart Austin\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
