A Vintage Paperback Book (measures 4 1/4" x 7" [11 x 18 cm]; 190 pages) (Learn More) Thorn of Evil, the 1962 Max Collier marriage infidelity sexploitation novel ("The view from the garden was beautiful - and tempting") Artist: Paul Rader Important Added Info: Note that this book has great cover art by perhaps the finest illustrator of these sleaze paperbacks (see below), Paul Rader! Note that this is one of a collection of 32 sexploitation paperback books from the 1950s and 1960s from a new collection we were recently consigned (see below for more), and are auctioning in 32 separate auctions. These are from the repressed 1950s and 1960s, from the days when "respectable" people had few outlets for non-traditional sexual desires, and these "sleaze" paperbacks covered those subjects in depth! They always had lurid covers, and they were often sold "under the counter" (where you had to ask for them). The sexual revolution of the late 1960s made these books pretty irrelevant, but they are a fascinating reminder of repressed sexual attitudes of the 1960s! In 2018, we were consigned a collection of around 300 of these books, and we auctioned them from then until 2021. Now we have been consigned a new collection that we will be auctioning every four weeks, with around 30 in each auction. There is only one of each title, so if you don't purchase a specific book, don't expect to see it again, because there is not another example of it in this collection! Condition: very good.
