    First Edition.

    44cm x 29cm. 20 pages, black and white illustrations. Folded newsprint self-wrappers.

    Single issue of the Australian Screwcraft Review, the weekly Kings Cross Guide sex newspaper with the motto “It is the right of every adult Australian to be able to read and view anything in the privacy of his own home.” Produced in Sydney, and distributed in newsagents shortly after the dismantling of Australia’s strict censorship regime by Gough Whitlam, Screw was largely aimed at placing adult media in the hands of discerning and undiscerning adults. Largely hetero, but definitely not lacking, gay, lesbian, and transgender material, each issue filled with advertisements for sex shops, mail order adult products, and personal ads, accompanied by pornographic photographs, erotic fiction, and by late 1973 commenced running arts features on high profile musicians and artists, though the editorial focus shifted back to a more hardcore erotic focus in 1974. Labelled as the South-East Asian Edition of Al Goldstein’s New York publication by the same name, with distribution extending to New Zealand, New Guinea, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore. Scarce Australian erotica.

    Horizontal fold. Minor soiling, tanning, and edge wear. Very Good Condition.
