Product Information

A softcore magazine dubbed the ‘magazine for men which women love to read’, Fiesta’s owners also produced ‘ Knave’. Gallery Despite bowing to popular demands to increase the hardcore content by the 2000s, the magazine’s circulation dwindled and eventually closed in 2007. Perfect 10 This magazine commenced publication in 1966 as the ‘ Adam Film Quarterly’ and launched a second title, ‘ Adam Film World Guide’, in 1981 which eventually became the flagship title

Private was the first adult magazine to be printed in full colour and was the brainchild of Berth Milton, a Swedish entrepreneur. In the 60s, Milton produced some super-8 adult movies which were unsuccessful but his home collections of sets of colour nude photographs were an instant hit with customers at his shop. First issued almost twenty years ago this niche magazine aimed at the Asiaphile, Asian Fever is a part of the Larry Flynt Publications empire which also produces Hustler and Barely Legal.Penthouse saw a new kind of image with the models being posed to look indirectly at the camera and the magazine had the appeal of voyeurism. The title was also the first to publish a full frontal nude image or images that showed some pubic hair. Causing a good deal of controversy at the time, this development of mainstream publishers opened the doors for new entrants to the market including fellow UK title, Mayfair. The 1960s saw many new entrants to the adult magazine market, including British publication Mayfair.

As explicit images were becoming more common the seventies saw yet more titles hitting the top shelf with Hustler in 1974 in the USA and Men Only and Club International in the UK. Nudes were the brand, so if one day you remove them, then you technically kill the brand image. Playboy with no nudes was an oxymoron.Originally called Rapport 76, this Swedish owned company produces titles in both Norwegian and Swedish. This is due to the fact that the original title was a Norwegian brand but later sold to Swedish publishers.

A French magazine which was set up to rival Playboy in Europe, Lui sold the US franchising rights to Playboy in 1972 (see Oui, above).
