Auction History Result 6p1378 DAUGHTER OF SHAME signed paperback book 1962 by author Joan Ellis, Paul Rader art, ultra rare! Date Sold 6/4/2024 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. A Vintage Autographed Paperback Book (measures 4 1/4" x 7" [11 x 18 cm]; 156 pages) (Learn More) Daughter of Shame, the 1962 Joan Ellis sexploitation novel ("She was sex-trapped, then branded a sinner."; "Everyone knew about her act of indecency, but not why she did it.") Artist: Paul Rader Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this paperback book! Also note that this book has been personally autographed (signed) by the author, Joan Ellis! 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 31 sexploitation paperback books from the 1950s and 1960s from a collection, and this is the FINAL group from that collection (see below for more), and are auctioning in 31 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. Since mid 2023, we have been auctioning a different collection, and THIS GROUP OF 31 OF THESE BOOKS IS THE FINAL GROUP FROM THIS NEW COLLECTION, SO AFTER THIS, WE WILL HAVE NO MORE (unless we are consigned others from a new consignor). 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: good to very good.
