selegue Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 A big box of comics (ebay and other) arrived from Sharon (skypinkblu) today. When I tore into the packaging, the first thing I saw was a post-it note with an apology for not throwing in more freebies, and this gem: [i wish that I could provide a slide-whistle sound effect] I figure that Mr. skypinkblu is going to be pre-e-e-ety ticked off when he discovers that it's missing from the bottom of his underwear drawer! More scans when (if) I find time. Thanks, Sharon! Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

selegue Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 .... ... So, is that what was considered racy back in your day? Good question. Published by Timely Features, Oct 1961 -- so to put it in context, one month before Fantastic Four 1's cover date, from the same publishing house. This book would have been on the racks at the same time as FF1. Funny to think that people would have been posting happyfaces left and right rather than chuckling if I had posted FF1, especially as a free toss-in! Goodman and company may well have made more profit from Laugh Riot 10 than from FF1. Was it considered racy? Probably yes. The content is mildly risqué cartoons from Bill Ward and similar cartoonists, pin-up photos only slightly more revealing than the one on the cover, and some text gags. Eight-year-old Jackie would not have seen this book at one of the the two nearby mom 'n' pop stores that sold comic books. The other store (right across Broadway) probably would have had it displayed somewhere between the comic books and the soft porn (of course, barely noticed until a few years later) in their huge, wooden magazine rack. Not a book that you'd leave sitting around on the end table in the living room, but probably a standard fixture in garages, factories, locker rooms, barracks and the like. [say, what do you mean by "in my day" anyway?] Jack back to the Pleasurama! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
