Bizarre Book Service
It used to be that you had to live in one of America’s few great cities if you wanted access to the best sorts of obscure porn. A good fetish book or magazine simply wasn’t likely to reach the smaller cities of the USA, much less the one (if you were lucky) independent bookstore in your small town. No, if your porn tastes were more complicated than Playboy, Penthouse, and Hustler, you might easily require the services of a specialist bookseller in one of the major urban markets. You could find them; they advertised!
What, exactly, was meant by “rare esoterica and curiosa?” Interesting question. Probably a subject best explored in the course of a long and expensive relationship with your book service. The more money spent and trust earned, the more esoteric! Or, at least, such would be my guess.
