Did you ever wonder how early pornographers advertised and distributed their wares? It is usually assumed that back in the days of routine obscenity prosecutions, the “hard stuff” was distributed by organized crime on a city-by-city basis and sold “under the counter” by your shadier sort of neighborhood news stand operators. That probably was a common method of distribution, too. But in the back pages of the December 1947 Sports Fiction magazine, I’m seeing evidence that the cheaply-printed 8-page raunch booklets known as Tijuana bibles were being advertised for sale through the mail. I’m quite certain that the “eight page bibles” are the product these coyly-cryptic ads describe, but I’m less certain if these were genuine offerings. Given the serious penalties for mailing obscene material in those days, it’s possible the ads are simple fraud: send money, get bupkis.

The deliberate vagueness of the advertisements further raises the possibility of more complex frauds. Order sea monkeys, get brine shrimp eggs. Order x-ray specs, get a cheap lens with a spine-shaped feather glued to it. Order what sounds like Tijuana bibles, get similar-looking pamphlets with no obscene material in them? I discount this as unlikely, only because the ads offer dozens of different titles. If an entire genre of non-pornographic 8-page-bible lookalikes had ever existed, where are surviving examples? The real ones were cheap and fragile, yet many survive. On balance, I think these advertisements are likely more-or-less legit.

There’s a weird psychological flaw in human memory called the Doorway Effect. It often makes us forget our purpose for entering a room, during the process of walking through the doorway. This enterprising fellow hopes it offers him an opportunity to exercise the power of suggestion:

Fans of hentai erotic art (and I am one) will have noticed that the obsessions of artists in this space are at once diverse and specific. There’s quite a range between tentacle sex and airtight catgirls, you have to admit. But even when they focus on an erotic topic of mainstream interest like lesbians (and who doesn’t like lesbians?) they can get really precise about various micro-fetishes. I mean, why draw two lesbians fucking, when you can draw two lesbians fucking while simultaneously making porn of it? Go ahead, invite the camera into the sex scene, make it an orgy-by-proxy. Just you, your webcam, me, your buttplug, and all your girlfriends with cutsie avatars who are watching the camshow:

It is no surprise that lesbian porn with cameras in it should be a thing. A common formulation of the invincible Rule 34 promises that “If a thing exists, there is porn of it. No exceptions.” Of course, we all know that lesbian cams are definitely a thing. So, sure, why not porn of lesbians making lesbian sexytimes with cameras in hand?

Sometimes, the fun of a camera in your sex scene is that it gives you a nice closeup view of the action. Cameras can get in close when your head and eyes are busy directing the sexual business at a more strategic distance from the action:

Then the are the times when the camera is about voyeurism and humiliation. Getting reamed up the ass by your girlfriend’s huge rubber strap-on dildo is one thing, and a perfectly fine thing it is. But it becomes a very different sex scene when she invites her best friend to come over and watch… and bring a camera! Since this is 20121, even the humblest little digicam has the potential to, and probably in fact has the ability to, take digital movies of your lesbian fun. Most of them also have the fifty-cent wifi chip, too, because why not build it into everything? So when she says she’s streaming your humiliation live to all of the rest of your friends on social media, you kinda have to believe her!

Last but not least, having a camera handy helps answer what is often the biggest open question of any bondage scene. She wants to tie you up and have her way with you. But what is she actually going to do to you? Sure, she’s gonna fuck you, but that only lasts so long. It’s helpful to have other activities planned, to prolong the fun. And among the best of these is to take salacious pictures while you’re helpless to prevent it:

It’s not for nothing that many people consider the camera their favorite sex toy these days!

You don’t have to know much about common fetishes to be aware that white rubber swim caps have been a fetish object for many decades, with a currency in porn that has long outlasted their presence in fashion and practical swimwear. But today I learned that there were other styles “back in the day”. Here’s a 1934 swimming cap in black latex with a hairstyle (said to the “Marseilles wave”) molded right into the rubber!

I wonder if anybody ever made one with a “Medusa’s snakes” motif?

So Danya writes on Twitter about how she went antiquing, and thought she’d found “some cute letters.”

As, indeed, she had! But one of them was from Ann, who signs as “Your Well Fucked Girl Friend Ann.” Ann has just enjoyed a threesome with Tom and Harry (and, presumably, dick) and is writing to somebody to tell them all about it.
