Just wanted to recommend a book that I just discovered and absolutely love.

"Sin-A-Rama: Sleaze Sex Paperbacks of the Sixties" is a treat for the eyes. Here's a link:

http://www.amazon.com/Sin-Rama-Sleaze-Paperbacks-Sixties/dp/1932595058/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1203820302&sr=1-1

It's 288 pages of eye-popping color photos from the pulp porn paperbacks of the Sixties. There's no way to describe the great cover art. You'll have to pick up a copy and check it out yourself. If you love that genre, I promise you won't be disappointed

Thanks for the heads-up, luci I love some of the pulp art, and I'm intrigued by the essays the book has, by the likes of Donald Westlake, and Robert Silverberg.

Thanks, kittinSol. I had not heard of him. I'll check out the link. You're right that this is "pure pulp fiction." I love the cover art. Now, if I could only get my hands on all those books. I'm sure they're gems to read............luci
