Can anyone post more of these old magazine’s WW2 covers and illustrations? I think they’re really cool.
The footnote in the last magazine cover:
“Swastika girsl in Argentina s no escape from brothel camp”
:rolleyes:
Looks like that lady is escaping from the brothel camp, not the other way around.
I think it actually says
“Swastika slave girls in Argentina’s no-escape brothel camp”
Here is a learned article on the topic http://www.thespoof.com/news/spoof.cfm?headline=s3i16328
And a less learned one in a journal with greater but less valid pretensions to learning and accuracy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Men’s_adventure [you’ll have to copy this link into the address bar - don’t know why it won’t work]
Precisely why Argentina would have Nazi sex slaves during WWII is a bit of a mystery to me, unless it suddenly went anti-Nazi between 27 March 1945 when it bravely declared war on Germany (which up to that point it had supported) and 7 May 1945 when Germany surrendered, an event not entirely unpredictable at the point that Argentina suddenly threw its weight in on the Allied side.
Maybe the article refers to women enslaved by Nazis to work in brothels in Argentina?
That would be how I would read it.
When I used to holiday in Talacre, as a young boy of around eleven or twelve. These mags were found everywhere. They sensatinalised everything (as one can judge by the cover pics above), especially the women - every man’s (and boy’s) fantasy. I remember a picture in one of them showing a woman in nothing but bra, stockings and suspenders,:eek: standing, arms akimbo, and the caption read: " I only like a man that knows what he’s doing!" Obviously, this image is etched indelibly on my mind. I always wondered what kind of person did not know what they were doing?

Jawol ¡¡…those camps were next to the nazi UFO base in the antartic and the Hotel in wich Hitler stayed after he escaped off Berlin in a triebflugel. Sieg heil :twisted:
Give me a break.
The only part with sence is that if the nazis want women “services”, they were very likely to get some argentine womens, because his beauty. :mrgreen:
I concur, and I can speak from personal experience.

…and you have a nice display in this forum too.
I found a site the other day that had a lot of scanns of the monthly pin-ups from the old Yank Magazines, but no cover shots…lol
Hi all,
I’m back! Life is crazy sometimes, it really is! I’ve had to move my blog and tons of stuff like that…anyway, speaking of the Yank stuff above, here’s this site, but I think it may be dead:
