Description

Up for sale is copy of Teenage Deviates, Volume 1 Number 1, (March/April/May, 1978). Published by Profile Publications of Hollywood, California. Condition is in G/VG according to the grading description below, leaning towards VG. Only condition issue knocking it to G/VG is the edge wear on the spine that breaks color. light wear to corners, and storage wear to covers (very faintly breaks color. Inside is immaculate.

Contained within is very high quality black and white photography featuring only solo women and girl/girl scenes. The centerfold is in color. What I found particularly interesting (and perhaps this is old news to the more veteran sellers/consumers of vintage adult mags) is the politicized/activist/social commentary contained within the publication information. I have included this in photo 3. 

GENERAL DESCRIPTION: In the Summer of 2021, I purchased an abandoned house at auction loaded with the previous occupant’s belongings. Among those items were boxes and boxes of adult magazines. The P/O was a bit of a town eccentric, and was told he often purchased items the local auction houses either didn’t sell or were unwilling to sell. I suspect these magazines were obtained that way.

Of the maybe 20 banker’s boxes of adult magazines found in the house, I have thrown away anything completely trashed unless it looked particularly interesting. All of these magazines have been dry-dusted, treated with ozone, and if warped spent a couple minutes in a press. Please forgive any remaining dust or damage within I did not notice. I am in “unloading” mode with these, not “maximize sale price” mode, and thus I take good, clear pictures, note obvious defects and sell them as is. My condition descriptions are based on a quick visual inspection and flip-through.

I base my condition grading based on this:

Very Good (VG) – Top grade - a nice copy, with all pages present, nice clean covers and no tears or stains noticeable.  Looks practically new!

Good/Very Good (G/VG) – A complete and clean magazine, possibly with minor light cover wear.  Any major defects noted.

Good (G) – Definitely looks its age, but it is a complete magazine. Covers may be slightly soiled or creased, and some fraying of the spine edge may be present. Possible small cover edge tears or light stains. Any major defects noted. “Rolled Spine” – Spine edge is curled from being folded back when read.

Fair/Good – Well read, and not stored well. Wear to the covers, with possible edge tears, stains. Defects often noted.

Fair – Readable and complete, but with noted damage

I understand that I am a new seller on AdultStuffOnly. Like I assume many on this site, I used to sell adult magazines on Ebay before they ended their Adults Only section. I assure you I have extensive experience with online reselling and will get you your items promptly and professionally.

 

SHIPPING: Magazine will sleeved and boarded, shipped in a padded mailer with extra scrap cardboard for rigidity in transit.  Shipping is via discounted USPS unless it sells for over $50, in which case I will ship via USPS Ground Advantage. 

 

If additional items are purchased from my listings/auctions, I will adjust shipping on your invoice. I sell in varying weights and sizes, so using the "additional cost" feature doesn't work for me. I usually round shipping up to the closest dollar to pay for box/padding. I do not attempt to make extra money for shipping. 

EDIT: i have decided to add a fair/poor condition copy of "Sweet Titty Teens" vol1, #1 to whoever wins this auction. The cover has significant damage, but the inside block is g/vg. If you search ASO for "sweet titty teens" its the same issue that sold recently (70s, mainly yellow cover with red lettering)
