I found the following editor’s statement on the masthead of a 1957 issue of a Hollywood Confidential magazine and I must say, I feel like this Walter Hale fellow and I would have gotten along pretty well:

This magazine is dedicated to freedom of both the mind and the sight and ad libitum which, translated from the Latin means: “at pleasure, as much as one pleases!” Many of the photographs published are “in puris naturalibus,” as the French say and the Editors are convinced and jurists agree that there is nothing lewd nor obscene in the undraped human form, particularly the female with praiseworthy proportions. TV, Radio and News-papers may quote from this issue providing they give proper credit but TV producers are expressly forbidden to reproduce any of the photographs, TV being a medium for children. This magazine is never sold to minors, morons, maniacs.

Other than the one link at the top of this post I can’t find a lot of information about Walter Hale. If anybody knows more, please feel free to drop links in the comments.
