10 Erotica 62892 THE PRIVATE COLLECTION 1970-


1979: 5 Volumes edited by Dian Hanson In 1965, there was no explicit pornography. The man who changed all that was Berth Milton of Stockholm, with his audacious little digest, Private.

This five volume, 960-page mini-boxed set presents the best of ‘Private’ from 1970 to 1979. Each 192-page book features seven to ten of the best photo sets, arranged in chronological order, produced from the original colour transparencies. Also included are photos never seen in the magazine, plus behind-the-scenes photos of Milton at work and all of the magazine covers, vintage art, ads and editorials. Flexicover, 5 volumes in a slipcase. 3½” x 5½”, 960 pages. Adults only! ONLY £25

69641 MOTEL FETISH


by Eric Kroll and Chas Ray Krider “A number of years ago I began to see distinctive layouts in Hustler’s Leg World that got me nervous. The photographs were that good. Whoever it was had style and made the women his women. Krider women. Women I began to desire on a monthly basis. In the world of professional golf there is an expression ‘the world’s greatest golfer not to win a major tournament.” Chas Ray Krider was the world’s greatest erotic photographer not to have a book. Thanks to Taschen we now have over 160 Krider images to pore and salivate over. Like a good film noir, he takes us to lustful places. Is it a crime scene or a sea of lust? These beautiful, languid women wait for whom? For me. For you. They play the ‘waiting game’ beautifully. An ass in the air, a pair of crossed legs in nylons, all bathed in warm tones. A still life unstuck in time. So this is what goes on behind closed doors? Oh, I almost forgot. Alongside these many Midwest femmes fatales is Dita, raven-haired icon. Not since Betty Page has a woman fleshed out so correctly a vintage girdle and bra ensemble. Enjoy. He takes you places where you only vaguely think you have been.” - Eric Kroll, editor and pupil. 6.4 x 8.5"., 272 pages. Text in English, French and German with reversible panic jacket! ONLY £12


So small, yet so big! 69630 THE LITTLE BOOK OF BIG PENIS by Dian Hanson


“Sirs” begins the missive from our imaginary correspondent. “It’s not that I don’t love your original Big Penis Book, but that, perhaps, I love it too much. I now become anxious leaving the house without it, and long business trips are simply torture.


Couldn’t you make a smaller, less obtrusive edition, still packed with men whose generative members measure over 8 inches, that doesn’t form a suspiciously large bulge in my carry-on luggage? And while you’re at it, could you make it highly affordable, since my pockets are as shallow as this premise?” Done! The Little Book of Big Penis features over 150 massively endowed models from the 1940s through the 90s, including photos by Bob Mizer of AMG, David Hurles of Old Reliable, Rip Colt of Colt Studio, Craig Calvin Anderson of Sierra Domino, Hal Roth of Filmco, Jim Jaeger of Third World Studios, Falcon Studios, Mike Arlen, Fred Bisonnes, Carlos Quiroz, and Charles Hovland in a compact and inexpensive softcover format. 30% of the content is unique to this edition. 4.7 x 6.5", 192 pages.

69635 ARAKI: Tokyo’s Lucky Hole by Nobuyoshi Araki


No-panties coffee shops with private cubicles and peep rooms, were very much a part of Tokyo’s Shinjuku area in the 1980s and remained strong until a new Act came into force. Competitive sex business owners racked their brains to come up with new ideas. One establishment was called the Lucky Hole, a series of cubicles separated by plywood partitions. The customer entered a cubicle, removed his trousers, and inserted the most precious part of his body into the lucky hole. Sex magazines began to expose the other side of the plywood partition, and a star by the name of Chikage was born. She set up her own business, Happy Hole, one room which accommodated one customer at a time. With graphic scenes of S & M and bondage, though mostly playful and everyday, here are very private lives and private parts all captured in black and white stills. Taschen softback for adults only. 5½” x 7½”, 704 pages. ONLY £9


69642 TOM OF FINLAND: Bikers edited by Dian Hanson


In 1953 The Wild One, starring Marlon Brando as Johnny, leader of the Black Rebels Motorcycle Club, was released worldwide. In 1954 Tom of Finland, previously known for his military and blue-collar subjects, drew his first civilian motorcyclist dressed in black leather. Coincidence? Hardly. The tagline “That ‘Streetcar’ Man has a new Desire!”, resonated far more with gay audiences, who took Brando’s character as a template for the first leatherman. After seeing The Wild One Tom never drew men in brown leather again; black leather now dominated his fantasies, and his art. Tom adopted Brando’s leather Perfecto jacket, white T-shirt, Levi’s, and high boots as his signature look. It was this same look that Tom selected for Kake, his confident, ever- horny hero of 26 panel stories. Kake became Tom’s fearless, outgoing alter ego, and bikers supplanted military men as his favourite subject. In Tom of Finland Volume II- Bikers we explore Tom’s fascination with bikers through a mixture of multi-panel comics and single panel drawings and paintings. Historic film stills and posters, personal photos of Tom, sketches. 5.9 x 8.5", 272 pages. New publication. ONLY £11.50
