Tiger Magazine, the brother publication to DSI’s Butch Magazine, is an important archeological find. Not only is it full of extremely hot guys from 1966, but it contains rare references to the early gay rights movement. Plus, it has some campy attempts at humor, in the tradition of mainstream lifestyle magazines.

On page 41 there is an Op Ed piece about the Dew vs. Halaby case concerning a gay air traffic controller who got fired in 1958 because he “smoked marijuana on five occasions and had engaged in for homosexual acts, some of them for money.” He fought and won back his job and back pay.”The Government is beginning, increasingly, to feel itself placed on the defensive in cases such as this.”

Fast forward 50 years and we’re still fighting against the Government firing military people who are found to be gay! “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” is 17 years old already, and we’re still begging Republicans to go along with a repeal. We need to put those bastards on the defense once and for all!

Okay, I’ve stepped down from my soap box. Now back to the smut. Get a VIP Membership to see more of Tiger. Grrr!

Believe it or not, there is more gay erotica comics beyond Tom of Finland. Publishing artwork of erotic cartoon art has been a staple of gay porn magazines from Day One, though most are not a household name like Tom of Finland.

Even though it seems like everything you could do in erotica has already been filmed with live actors, the twisted minds of erotic artists can still go far beyond what is possible in the real world.

Many of the magazines I scan have awesome galleries devoted to erotic art interspersed with photo sets. As I get more and more content in the VIP Room, I am considering creating galleries with nothing but erotic art. Would you like to see that? Please add your Comments.

This may sound marginally creepy, but I was instantly turned on by the title “Muscleboy” Magazine and couldn’t wait for it to arrive. Turns out it was an early attempt at being a gay lifestyle magazine much like “OUT” Magazine today. Along with softcore pretty boy posing, it had articles, advertising and fashion spreads featuring clothes from a gay store on Polk Street in San Francisco.

There are so many interesting tidbits to say about this magazine, both erotically and culturally, but I’ll start with an observation that covers both. As I paged through the magazine for the first time, I noticed several pages were “enhanced”. My guess is that the original owner of this magazine was so starved for nudity and hardcore material that he drew penises on many of the pictures! Other times, his technique was to use an eraser to create outlines of where a hard cock would bulge in a pair of pants.This magazine must have been quite well-loved, and since it is from 1965, there really wasn’t much else to be found. The enhanced photo above is a good example. He added a big, fat cock where only a white posing strap existed, drew star bursts from the nipples, added hoop earrings, and some sort of whiskers or something. And if you look closely, there is even a man’s hand reaching out to grab that big dick, and rough outlines of  a rope tying his wrists together.

At first I was disappointed that I purchased a magazine that wasn’t in pristine condition, but after I thought about it, I think it’s even more of a relic with the added enhancements, and there is a bit of artistic flair, too. Style points awarded.

I’m going to show some examples of other interesting observations from completely different perspectives in the coming days, but why wait? Just go get a VIP Membership and look at the 72 pictures I scanned from “Muscleboy” right now!

I WANT MORE MUSCLEBOY

I’m very excited about another recent purchase of vintage gay porn. The other day I dropped by my favorite thrift store (don’t ask me where it is, I don’t reveal my sources!) and found a stack of old magazines from the 60’s and 70’s. Magazines from the 60’s are especially rare because there weren’t many printed. But a couple of the items from this batch are doubly rare because they are hardcore.

I don’t have any real documentation by time line, but most of the gay adult material in the 1960’s was still very tame. Some of it went from the solo guys standing in posing straps to two guys naked in bed without touching each others genitals. There is a lot of semi-softcore material well into the 1970’s that wouldn’t go any farther than “no-mouth-on-dick” porn. It wasn’t till the mid to late 1970’s that gay porn was fully hardcore with penetration.

At least two of the magazines from this recent purchase can clearly be identified as being from the 1960’s AND with full penetration. This makes it much more rare, and as a result, much more valuable in the future.

Along with the stack of magazines I bought the other day, I also scored eight framed art pieces. Six of them are prints of gorgeous male nudes signed by Joe Johnson in 1981. Another one is a print by R. Christian Anderson that is stamped and numbered.

But my favorite is an actually original pencil art piece that looks very much like the style of Tom of Finland. It’s signed by “Clark” and dated 1981.

I wasn’t expecting to spend the amount of money I did at that moment, but from a broader perspective, it was a steal. Not only did I get 30 year old legitimate erotic art for pennies, I also scored rare historical and cultural oddities that go back up to 45 years. Please support this website so I am allowed to continue this important work.

Erotic Cartoons – Cowboys and Indians

I love erotic cartoons. I am acquiring a nice collection of vintage erotic art that I will be sharing with you as I go along. Once I get enough prepared for this site, I will create it’s own section. In the meantime, just get your VIP Membership and hunt around. You’ll never know what you’ll find in the VIP Room.

The twinks depicted in the little scene from “New Dudes” are all drawn to be short, supple and muscular but still innocent and doe-eyed, while committing disgusting acts of filth as cowboys and Indians. Would the politically correct name be “Twink-ians”?
