***Those smutty bodice-rippers of the 1970s and 1980s had the most ruthless, stalking rapists imaginable. ***

70s and 80s? You should have seen the COVERS of the pocket books from the 1930s through the 1960s! And the interiors-WOW! Blood and sex on the cover!

And those weren’t even the porn books! It was said in the business that the seller had about 5 seconds to catch they eye of a passerby and make a sale.

I believe they toned the covers (except the porn) down after Robert Kennedy was shot.
