Do you know how Pin-up girls got started? Back when World War II was going on, G.I.'s torn sexy photos of women out of magazines and Pinned them up in there lockers, bulletin boards or any other place to display these lovely sex symbol women.
The pin-up girl began coming popular in the 1930's. It was a time when the image of a pretty girl florished. Can you guess who the most famous and very popular Pin-up is even to this day? Yup- that's right-Marilyn Monroe of course!
So what do you think of the Pin-up girls? Love them or Leave them?

Oh they are gorgeous.... and I love that they are all not as skinny as todays celebrities. You asked me about the price of petrol in Australia. We don't use gallons as a measure so I have no idea how a gallon relates to a litre but our petrol today is $1.59 per litre and it is the headline almost every day in the newspaper as the population is outraged! A-M xx
