Condition report

Good. An honest, handled copy with a shop price sticker and a bit of old tape on the front and a well-rubbed spine edge on the back, but the black-and-white photo pages inside are clean and strong. There is also a small tear at the front right edge and chips along the back spine edge. Every mark is in the photos.

The story

A Plowright Publication with a grey card cover, a printed price of $5. and a later $3.50 sticker on top, The Boys in the Bed opens on two men stretched out on flowered pillowcases, already hard, already lending each other a hand and in no hurry to get up.

The "Fully Illustrated Story" plays out in close, grainy black-and-white. Page 9 has one man taking it from behind and another with his face buried between a pair of hairy cheeks, then the action heads outdoors for a blow job against a wall of shrubs and back indoors against striped wallpaper. The back cover, under a purple "Not For Sale To Minors" banner, squeezes a third man into the bed with his legs straight up between the other two.

Why it matters

Small-press, black-and-white and frankly filthy, this Plowright title still carries both its printed $5. price and the $3.50 sticker somebody once paid to take it home.
