Paintalicious has a gallery of artist Thomas Allen's book photography. Allen cuts the figures from vintage paperbacks and folds them up and out of the cover to create dioramas.
Using salacious pulp art drawing's of the '40s and '50s that covered books such as " I Married a Dead Man" and " Marihuana Girl', Allen constructs one set of pictures up close while obscuring another, and in the process creates a different context.
