A friend who is into buying abandoned "stuff" in storage (yup, just like "storage wars" on TV, just bought a MOST interesting "blind auction" prize. a storage shed full of what had to be the reminents of an old adult "movie" parlor.
For those too young to have been around in the 60's and 70's. let me explain. There used to be adult "bookstores" that would sell magazines up front, but in the back, and the BULK of their business, was a row of CLOSETS, with a bench in each. You paid maybe $1.00 go get IN, then you went into one of the little closets and closed the door. There was a single light bulb and nothing else but a screen on the wall. You popped quarters into a slot and an old MOVIE projector behind the wall would play about 5 minutes or ten minutes of a silent porno flick. Keep adding quarters for more time.
Men used to go in there and you can guess what they did. Sometimes woman "working" the corner nearby, or even waiting IN the shop would join a guy in the booth and you can guess what THEY did too.
Anyway, he just bought a load of these old movie reels and some ancient projectors...ALL of which have rusted and fallen apart.
However, I did use one of my own barely working movie projectors I had from my dad's house, and got a couple to play. These are all a whopping three minutes long. They were black and white and silent, of course.
I did not see any "recognizable porn stars" (like Long John, Ron Jeremy, Aunt Peg, or Linda Lovelace...etc) from that era. (At least none I could recognize). It was FUNNY to see things like EVERYONE very, very hairy (down there), as well as on their heads. Guys all had BIG mustaches too. Carpets, when visible, were LONG shag, and there were bottles of BEER all over.
Have you ever seen some "old" porn? What, if anything, did you find FUNNY about them. I have to admit, we were all laughing about stuff too hard to feel anything close to turned on. Kind of sad, really.
