Larry Flynt & HUSTLER rubbed folks the wrong way. His tools were shameless sex, brutal honesty, vulgar humor, and calling out political & celebrity hypocrisy.
His journey began with strip-clubs here in Dayton. "The Hustler" was a newsletter for his clubs–a fact usually ignored in local PR.
Of the big 3 men's mags, his is the only one still in print.

If you're still trying to piece together the puzzle of your St. Patrick debauchery, you might skip this post. If you like Sudoku puzzles, this one's for you! 16 unmarked number puzzle mags! These are all about 10 years old, so, even if you do these all the time, you've probably forgotten this batch by now.

From November 1979 LIFE magazine, "Barbie Turns 21." A walk through the first 2 decades of a toy line nearing 70 years of age. Now, in 2024, a wonderful & fun Oscar nominated movie. Good luck! A lot has changed over the years, but much has not.

Working on really cool old LIFE magazines. This photo hit home today, 62 years after it's publication. Our shop was already about 23 years old when this magazine was new.

Any Wrestling fans here in the fediverse?
Grandpa wrote about a wrestler in pulps 90 years ago. I've been thinking about updating the character.
A fresh batch of professional wrestling books and magazines turned up to inspire me.
Here's a sneak peak at 6 from a stack of dozens. A few real classics in this bunch!

Ahead of Memorial Day in the U.S., I'm drawn back to these December 1968 "Business Automation" ads. My fellow #Daytonians may recall #NCR HQ being here, their crucial role in WWII, & the old downtown #Dayton #Greyhound bus station. DYK Greyhound dabbled in the early computing industry?
