Looking Good a Guide for Men, Charles Hix and Bruce Weber 1st Edition 1977

About the Item

First US edition published by Hawthorn New York 1977 Looking Good; the first book ever to feature Bruce Weber’s photograph and of course it’s a men’s grooming book! Strong jaw-lines, a section on bronzer, wet powerful arms, avoiding genital odour and a section for teeth entitled ‘Organ Grinders’. Thankfully, Charles Hix has addressed the daily struggles of us hardy men with the help of Weber’s artistic photographs to aid the imagination. The book is also rumoured to have inspired the aesthetics of Tom Cruise in "Top Gun." Condition: Very rare to find a copy in this condition which is very good, slight fraying to edges and a small stain at the back Dimensions: 28.5 cm x 28 cm x 3 cm.
