Description: Première édition française. Broché couverture photographique, 220 x 253 mm. Traduction par Philippe Mikriammos. 150 pages, 73 photographies n/b dont 19 à double page. L'édition américaine est parue chez Farrar Straus and Giroux, à New York en 1976, puis rééditée par le Whitney Museum en 2003, sous le titre "Carnival Strippers". Les photographies sont accompagnées des témoignages des strip-teaseuses que Susan Meiselas a pris soin d'effectuer durant de long mois dans des contrées retirées de la Nouvelle Angleterre, où s'arrêtaient les baraques du strip-tease forain. "Tout le livre permet au lecteur de prendre de la distance. Le rideau qui tombe sur la scène de strip-tease est remplacé par la page qu'on tourne. Pareil au spectacle, le livre représente deux aspects coexistants d'un même phénomène, dont l'un horrifie et l'autre honore." Susan Meiselas. Petits défauts en bordure du cartonnage. Auer 599; Andrew Roth p. 238; Open Book p. 312, tous pour l édition américaine
