Orb Ink: XTreme Tattooing

You might want to get a couple of cups of coffee in you before you view this. Maybe some toast to settle your stomach. If you're sensitive, a slug of Pepto might help . And if you get squeamish just seeing someone get a tattoo on their arm, get out your Xanax NOW.

Think of me dangling new temptations

Inside Wildcat: for highly specialized tastes

I don't know if they started running out of ideas of whether they ran out of credit at the bar, but between naked ghosts, midget lovers and poisoners, one gets the sense the editors were trying just a little too hard.

 

Wait a minute...I'd read this one!

From "Real Men," 1966.

 

American Manhood: so macho it's gay

I've always thought there was a very fine line between hyper-macho identity and homoeroticism and, well, here ya go! Tom of Finland would read these, no? 

All from the early 1950s.

 

 

Inside All Man: depravity, 60s-style!

 

Vintage Men's Magazines: Conquest and Peril!

No wonder he's grimacing.  There must've been one hell of a mess to clean up after the gorilla came.

From 1958

from 1964

There will be some revolting developments: vintage sleaze

Hot off the pages of "Man's Life" magazine, 1960.

 

OK ok ok, are you ready for rougher kitsch?

Now that I've gently warmed you up with old album covers, think you can stand the next level? (psst, Evan, bet you don't have one of these hanging on your wall)

 

 

Passive Agressive Musical Interludes: vintage LP covers

 

Any diet that turns you into a Siamese triplet can't be right.

I see two hunters' hats but I don't see the hunters. OMG. The big dame ate the hunters!

Rev. Strange Love: vintage gospel album covers

The world first five-man quartet, answering the musical question "where did all that inbreeding occur?"

 

Nice of her brothers to show her, no?

Do you suppose he accompanies himself on the organ?

 

Musical Sluts: vintage LP covers

 

Syntax to drive ex-English professors crazy with.

That's right. She's a squirter.

Kitschy Kittens, or the musical girls next door

Snicker if you must, my younger friends, but some of your dads and granddads got their best sexual fantasies off album covers like these.

TMI?

For example, guess whose baton they wished she was twirling?

 

Nah, you don't want to see the guy's face, that would be too distracting.   Let's just pretend he isn't there.  (p.s. The floating hi-fi isn't there either.)

And, that sublimely stirring musical sensation, which made nocturnal emission levels skyrocket throughout the U.S. in 1966...

Twisted Sisters: 5 Fabulous Lesbian Pulp Covers

Does Kitsch Kill?

Today's the day we'll find out! Jam-packed with sordid delights from the oozing margins of sexual history, today's blog will be so cheesy and sleazy you'll feel dirty all over. Lesbian pulp novels, tacky album covers, sexist postcards and morally repugnant art from vintage men's magazines. If something makes you laugh until it hurts, I'll feel my job is done.

 

Think of Me Making You Feel Better

all over again, with a big bad show of kitsch sex all day tomorrow.
