JOHN Satyr Publication John Holmes Vintage Gay Magazine 1970s Superstud

$195 · Offered by eBay

JOHN — A Satyr Publication. Undated, circa mid-to-late 1970s. Featuring John Holmes, billed on the cover as “America’s No. 1 Superstud.” Original shop price sticker to front cover. An entire issue built around a single subject: John Holmes, the defining male star of Golden Age adult film. His work for the gay market was limited and is actively sought by collectors who follow his career, which makes a full dedicated title considerably scarcer than the anthology appearances that turn up more often. Structured as a day in four parts — Morning Business, Mellow Afternoon, Splash Action, Evening Shadows — a narrative sequencing device that was more common in the better-produced titles of the era than in newsstand one-shots. Color and black-and-white photography throughout. More gems drop daily — vintage LGBT+ magazines, covers, and dificult to find books from one of the largest private collections around, released a few at a time. Hunting something impossible to find?
