Glamorize Your Bank Checks with Pin-up Girls

By Alan Plastin

There is nothing quite as glamorous as the 1940's pin-up girls of old Hollywood. If you love retro-inspired images and want to glamorize your personal checks, then you should consider buying checks that contain gorgeous illustrations of the fabled pin-up girls. Not only are they beautiful images, but they are also memorable.

WWII might have been going on in the 1940s, but Hollywood was going strong. During that time, the pin-up girls were icons and not just sex symbols. They adorned magazines, calendars, and posters. These women were striking, enchanting, and sensational. With their faultless hair and makeup, incredible clothing, and dazzling smiles, they were loved by both men and women.

Being a movie star during that time did not always mean that the woman was also going to be a pin-up girl. Actually, although the star might be beautiful, it took a little something extra for a woman to be a pin-up girl and to be desired. She also needed to have a glamorous air about her as well as something that distinguished her from other women. Images of pin-up girls were mass produced and had wide appeal and therefore there also needed to be something accessible about her as well.

Betty Grable was a very popular pin-up girl in the 1940s, and one of the first. You could find her poster "pinned up" by soldiers in their lockers during the War. An illustration containing the image of an ideal woman, the Gibson girl, was another popular pin-up girl during that time period. Carmen Miranda, Jane Russell, Veronica Lake, Rita Hayworth, Lana Turner, and Ava Gardner were also popular pin-up girls in the 1940s. One of the most popular pin-up girls of all time was Betty Page in the 1950s. Even though many of her present-day fans were not alive during her prime, merchandise containing her image is still being sold today.

Even though pin-up girls still exist today, an argument exists that they no longer contain the allure and style of the women of the past. Although posters can be obtained of most of the popular female movie and televisions stars and supermodels, the sexy sirens of the past are gone.

If you would like your personal bank checks to have something a little different and you love the 1940s and 1950s, then the pin-up girls checks and their vintage feel might be right up your alley. They come in 4 rotating images so each lovely girl will be different from the one before her. Not only do these checks look great, but they can be conversation pieces, too, and they can say a lot about your personality and individuality.

If you buy your checks online from a site you can save as much as 50% off what your bank might charge you. You will also have a wide range to select from. You can anticipate receiving your checks in about 5 days. Don't forget to have your routing number and checking account number available when you place your order.

Movies And MP3

Movies and MP3 files are already compressed with near maximum capacity. Repacking them would just create larger files and increase decompression time. Ripped movies are still packaged due to the large file size, but compression is disallowed and the RAR format is used only as a container. Because of this, modern playback software can easily play a release directly from the packaged files, and even stream it as the release is downloaded (if the network is fast enough).

MP3 and music video releases are an exception in that they are not packaged into a single archive like almost all other sections. These releases have content that is not further compressible without loss of quality, but also have small enough files that they can be transferred reliably without breaking them up. Since these releases rarely have large numbers of files, leaving them unpackaged is more convenient and allows for easier scripting. For example, scripts can read ID3 information from MP3s and sort releases based on those contents.
