pause for nostalgia

Well, its the start of the New Year so i haave been doing a bit of clearing
out......
Having a rather large collection of mens` mags I unearthed a box of
"Cinema X" , a straight run from 1971-75 and consigned these sad mags,
that gave me many a good wank 40 years ago, to the dustbin.
Ah, happy days ! They cost 40 pence each ! And they recalled such
wonderful soft porn films as "The Secrets Of Sexy Susan" with Edwige
Frenech (anyone else recall this German babe from the 70`s) and the
glorious British romp, "School For Sex", both tame by today`s standards,
but they had more production value and eroticism in one minute than all
90 of pathetic tripe like "St Trinibums" !!
1975, I see, was the year French porno took off with some great 35mm
releases....
Nice to see the Brits got going eventually....about 30 years later !!!!!

Idiot ! They are all worth money and some very good money. If you are throwing any more out contact me and I will pay the postage and I will sell them myself !!

You threw them out?!!! Are you sure you won't regret it in about 10 or so years from now?
I remember helping my dad take piles of old '78' records to the tip about 40 years ago when they were considered embarrassingly old and worthless. They were in perfect nick and surely would be worth a small fortune by now.

To those of you kind enough to reply....the mags got thrown out
dear Mr Wells, as Jim Slip hints, precisely because I have so many !
I have tons of the bloody things and one reaches a point - say 40 years
on in the case of these Cinema X`s - when you think is it worth keeping
them buried much longer....
But don`t worry - my almost complete run of Playboys circa 1966-80, 200
early Hustlers and zillions more sit here.....and don`t get me started on
the hard ones like Private and Color Climax (even Jim Slip lusts after
those zanyl 70s and 80s layouts !) even including sandy haired
Brit stud, Lee Francis !!!
All, Mr Wells, are in pristine condition.....alright, perhaps, the occasional
sticky page, I was younger then....

Oh the captions in the old Color Climax mags, "He had to stuff his nose into her cheesy crack!"
I would have loved to have made a collection just of the captions, they were hilarious!

Well if your throwing any more out, don't. I will pay the postage and you send them to me.

Lee Francis, whatever happened to him. Last I heard he gave up after 25 years or so trying to get into porn !

Lee Francis....think I saw him a few months ago near some dossers by
Archway Tube station, offering his body for a few pence. I could tell it
was him because he was wearing a "I`ve fucked Marilyn Jess" teeshirt !
On the other hand, I might have been dreaming ! Perhaps it was just
another sad old git with the vestiges of Lee`s carrot hair and freckles !!
