Wrappers. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Dover, DE: D.M. Publishing Co., 1936. First Edition. January, 1936 issue (Volume VII, Number 1). 10 1/8" x 7 1/8", illustrated wrappers, 64 pp. with illustrations and photographs (nudes). Cover artist is uncredited, but is certainly either Enoch Bolles or George Quintana (see scan). Over-eighteen purchase only. Sturdy condition; some spine loss with chip toward bottom and slits at top and bottom, bit of cover soiling, fold at rear cover top left corner. Pages toned at margins but quite supple. Quite bright and unsoiled compared to typical examples. A strong Very Good, perhaps better. A scarce issue from of a thirties girlie mag which is in fact scarce throughout its 7-year run (1931-1937). A classic from a classic genre, collectible both for its cover (by either of the equally enigmatic Enoch Bolles and George Quintana) but also for its standard-fare contents: 16 full-page B&W nude photographs, soft (by today's standards) erotica short stories, and B&W illustrations for those stories which are often rather art-deco-y and rather collectible in their own right. With the exception of the occasional signed cover, the illustrations in this genre were generally unsigned and uncredited, and the authors of the stories were pseudonymic; while the genre was certainly not "indecent" enough to be banned, these magazines were not something most artists, photographers and authors particularly wanted credit for at that time. Stories in this issue: "When in Rome" (Michael Villon); "Lovely Pirate" (Gene Dolby); "Not So Dummy!" (Frank Roberts); "The Jeweled Garter" (Joyce Carroll); "Honey Cake!" (Gloria Dean); "Just For Excitement" (Arthur Wallace); "The Rainy Day" (Nona Benford); and "High Hat" (Ralph Gordon). Seasoned with a variety of sometimes rather intriguing ads and letters to the editor, as well. Rare piece of periodical history. L100.…
