| Description: |
The classic era takes us from the 1930s to the 1950s and the decline that set in with the self-censorship imposed on the publishers by Congress and the churches. This tells the story of the publishers, the artists and the industry--its successes and its disasters, its worth as an art form and the fears its excesses provoked. |
