Bottoms Up

: Unique Books, 1966.
First Edition.

20cm x 13cm. 140 pages, black and white ilustrations. Illustrated wrappers.

A gay bar in gay San Francisco. Cover illustration by Gene Bilbrew and 6 interior black and white illustrations by various artists. One of the many gay erotic pulp novels produced in the mid to late 20th century. These short sexually explicit stories, many of which were formulaic and published in easily recognisable series with graphically illustrated covers and titillating titles each targeting a specific sexual niche, demonstrate the breadth of sexual fantasy, occupation, desire, and deviance of the emerging homosexual culture.
