Publisher's Synopsis

First-ever collection of America's underground pornographic comics from the 1930s to the 1950s. Known as Tijuana Bibles, these highly explicit comic books constitute a fascinating view of the unknown, erotic America of that turbulent era. day I think these little comics are everything pornography ought to be - dirty, antisocial, funny, borderline psychotic. What an art form! - P.J. O'Rourke 'Charming and evocative, these artefacts present a little-known cultural history' - the New Yorker'
