Detectives, sex and old blue eyes

They were holding what was billed as, "American style flea market" in the community centre to raise funds for the local scout group. A good cause I thought and went along- mind you, dear reader, I think there might be something wrong here since there were no fleas there, American or otherwise.

What I did get was this nice magazine which I thought, at first glance, was a pulp mag along the lines Ellery Queen and Alfred Hitchcock Magazine but upon closer examination I found it was one of those true crime type publications. Mind you I bought it anyway.





I found this advert in the crime magazine for a book of sex practices amusing - and useful too if I could ever find anyone to practice with.





Ahh well -


Anyway tacky crime magazines aside I also came away with a pile of old paperbacks and a complete bound (well I think it is complete) set of an old part work called The Movie. There were twenty binders, each full of the history of cinema told in an engaging style. I paid £20 - can't be bad.
