2023 Historic Autographs Gilded Age Victorian Pin Up Girls Alloy /249
The "Victorian Pin Up Girls" trading card provides a historical overview of the concept of pin-up girls, which originated in the late 19th century. This cultural phenomenon began with American and French advertisements featuring illustrations of beautiful young women. Men collected these images, often pinning them up on walls. The burlesque performers of the 1860s were early adopters of this trend, using photos as business cards. A significant figure in this history is Charles Dana Gibson, who created the iconic "Gibson Girls" in 1887—innocent yet glamorous women who were precursors to the modern Barbie doll. At the turn of the century, Evelyn Nesbit became one of America's first supermodels, further popularizing the pin-up culture.
