AD / OBJECT EDITORIAL RECORD

THE STORY BEHIND THE OBJECT.

WHY IT MATTERS

Plain bedroom, close-cropped photos, no frills whatsoever. The honest, low-budget adult mag before video came along and changed everything.

OBJECT STORY

Tools of the Trade, and they're all on display. Close-up color on the covers, then bedroom scenes with two or more men inside, in color and black-and-white, with a dirty story between the photos.

No credits, just honest, hard, no-frills sex for $5. A great example of the plain adult-shop magazine.
