Illustrations from King’s Man 1960

October 14, 2014October 14, 2014 | thetrashphile

Last week my laptop crashed and I lost everything, it’s a sad and stressful experience. I feel silly about the sense of loss. The good thing is I have physical copies of my magazines and can scan whatever I might need again, but scanning and editing takes hours, so it’s unfortunate that the work was lost. I am still figuring out what might be still around and what I will need to ready again. So this week I thought I would post illustrations from King’s Man, mostly because I haven’t featured the rad illustrations these magazines offer yet. There’s not too many in the mag but I love the 60’s art. I’d like to feature more of the art from the mags, I hope it’s interesting to you; please comment if you like them and want more. Enjoy!

Blonde for a Bed 1960

September 30, 2014September 30, 2014 | thetrashphile

This pictorial can be found in King’s Man #9 1960. “Sharon Lee is twenty three and every inch a woman” The article states her measurements, tells readers to take their word for it and explains that they’ll measure her for you, its a strange write up. They go on to describe her as an object and that “the boudoir is the obvious place for her” Already this magazine seems more sexist than any I have read up to now. Usually they’re light hearted jabs about wanting to bang some cutie, but this very short write up rubs me the wrong way. But a literary critic I am not. I am more of a pictures critic and these are very artistic, esp for a girlie mag. Sharon is adorable with her blonde waves and cute pout. This pictorial features my fave pic from this magazine, I will put it first, its almost angelic, she’s simply beautiful, I’m sure you’ll agree. Enjoy!

King’s Man 1960

September 22, 2014September 22, 2014 | thetrashphile

New magazine day! I just scanned/edited King’s Man #9 from 1960 and the pictures are wonderful 60’s smut. I’m only going to post three pics tonight, as the cover girl/pin up doesn’t have her own write up and I can’t find her name anywhere. I hope I will be able to find her name and update this post in the future. So tonight is just a quickie. I haven’t joined a centerfold in a while, its a new skill for me. I like to think it came out ok. Hope you’re looking forward to the rest of the mag! Enjoy!

Back Cover

A Well Fed Red

August 14, 2014 | thetrashphile

Such a strange title ‘A Well Fed Red’ what does that even mean? Holly Crammer write up says ‘well fed’ but also describes her as ‘slender’. They don’t really say much either, she was in a beauty contest because she grew up on a potato farm and won the title of ‘Miss Potato 1968’ I am starting to wonder if the names they give are even their real names. I suppose people aren’t really supposed to read the write ups so it doesn’t really matter. Holly is beautiful though! She has a cute short beehive on the top of her head, and in the few color images you can tell she is actually a redhead. In the color pics you can also see her tan lines, and can tell she has naturally fair skin. I’m also a fan of her adorable pout, you’ll see what I mean. Enjoy!

Adam and Six Eves

May 6, 2014 | thetrashphile

This pictorial is a series of photos taken behind the scenes of the “nudie” film- Adam and Six Eves. I suppose I shouldn’t do a write up of a film I haven’t seen, but this is more of a paraphrasing of a review of a movie I haven’t seen. They say that the same basic movie-making patterns apply as larger productions, but “with a speeded-up shooting schedule and a low budget , making it most imperative that each scene be just right on the first try” I think this is a lil over simplified statement on filmmaking. What makes these movies “worse” is not having the budget for more takes, or more time for rehearsal/film/time to get scenes perfect, therefore they have to accept mediocre performances, based on the the budgeted shooting schedule. Honestly I love the “nudies” or sexploitation films of the 1960’s, its definitely my fave genre. I couldn’t find a copy of this particular film or even a tailer to accompany this post, just a one-sheet poster that I will include at the end of the fabulous photos of the actresses. These movies are all about the girls, something that I like, they should be the center of attention; what good are boobs if they aren’t being complimented or stared at? Enjoy!
