Eric Stanton Greatest Hits Vintage Sleaze Paperbacks of the 1960s
Eric Stanton defines vintage sleaze paperbacks of the 1960s. These mid-sixties colorful paperbacks define a time when lurid sexy covers grabbed the attention of male browsers in Times Square smut shops. On the cusp of the time when pornography went all the way and illustrators were no longer needed (except to portray activities which could hardly be photographed.) Masterpieces of sleaze. TIMES SQUARE SMUT the BOOK tells the story of the illustrators, models, publishers and creeps who created a revolution in sexual mores from a few bookstores in Times Square.
