Dian Hanson’s: The History of Men’s Magazines (Volume 6): 1970s Under the Counter
Dian Hanson
Koln: Taschen, 2022.“In 1965, the first issue of Private magazine was published. Inside were full-color photos of pretty women blatantly displaying their genitals. [The publisher] Milton also included his opinions, which mainly covered the absurdity of sex photos being outlawed when the naked brutality of the Vietnam War was shown daily on TV and in the print media. With its frank attitudes and imagery, Private became the starting point of Swedish hardcore–though the hardcore was still to come. It is not far-fetched to say Private changed the entire face of international pornography.” (from introduction)

Dian Hanson’s: The History of Men’s Magazines (Volume 5): 1970s at the Newsstand
Dian Hanson
Koln: Taschen, 2022.“1967 was the year men’s magazines became pornography. Prior, there were pinup magazines and adventure magazines, art-photo magazines, nudist magazines, girlie titles and risque titles, over-the-counter and under-the-counter, top shelf and bottom shelf, spicy, saucy, sparkling and seedy titles. But the day Berth Milton Sr. walked into a session of Swedish Parliament with photos of actual sexual intercourse and announced he was going to publish them in his magazine Private, pornography was born.” (from introduction)
