From the publisher:

Steve Holland: The World's Greatest Illustration Art Model- The Deluxe Edition is a visual celebration of the career of the most iconic male model whose face and form were recognized on paperbacks (Doc Savage, The Spider among others), magazines (Male, For Men Only, and more), comic books (The Phantom, Conan, and The Hulk), advertising illustration (The Saturday Evening Post), and even television (1950's Flash Gordon) from the fifties through the eighties. For many growing up in this era, Steve Holland was the face and muscle of male heroism - the archetypal hero that all men could aspire to be.

This deluxe limited edition is larger, 9x12" on premium 157gsm art paper. Inside the book is hundreds of reference photos, covers and exclusive interviews with the illustrators who worked with Steve Holland, including Peter Caras, Ron Lesser, Jack Faragasso and many more. Also included is a new 20 page chapter featuring Holland's work with Robert Maguire for the 1970s revival of The Spider, including the reference photos, paperback covers and preliminary sketches.

Featuring exclusive biographical material and memorabilia from his family, interviews with the world-famous commercial illustrators who captured his dynamic sensibility, the colorful paintings and covers, and rare reference photos; this is the definitive story of a true American icon whose impact on pop culture was limitless - right up until his death in 1997. For over thirty years Steve Holland wore the crown of male heroism.
