Cinema Sewer review
FAB Press collects Robin Bougie’s Cinema Sewer magazine in print volumes. Its coverage of vintage adult and cult cinema includes interviews and old movie advertising. I’d browse the books to see how those films were written about and sold.
Find the magazine issues inside the book
The book number and magazine issue number refer to different things. Volume Eight collects issues 32 through 34, the last three in the run, and adds material beyond those issues. If you already own a few copies of the magazine, check the issue range before buying a collected book. If you’re trying to place a film by the year it came out, I’d start with the decade and year index at The Classic Porn.
Check the binding and the extras
FAB Press lists separate hardcovers and paperbacks for volumes Seven and Eight. The description for Volume Eight identifies a signed collector’s hardcover with additional comics material. Check the edition before buying if that extra is the reason you’re looking at the hardcover. For the magazine reprints and interviews, I’d start with the paperback listing.
Anabel’s take
The old adverts are what would get me to pick up Volume Eight. They give me a way to look at the films through the people who had to get an audience into a cinema. I’d buy one volume for the writing before deciding whether to collect the rest.
