Eros Issue 2





Publication: Eros Magazine
Designer: Herb Lubalin
Editor: Ralph Ginzburg
First published: 1962
Issue: 2
The endpapers of this issue are really striking in their stark blue and red colours. There are so many good spreads in this issue. And even more enlightening of the times are people's responses to the magazine in the back. I think the big red 'Filth' is my favourite. They were a pleasure to read. Who would have thought such a beautifully designed magazine could illicit such outrage. Maybe the sixties weren't as swinging as we were led to believe.

Eros in Eye 25


Publication: Eye
Issues: 25
Just in case you don't have it, here is what Eros looked like in the Eye article. It's a shame it's in black and white as the full colour Monroe shots are very arresting as are the bright blue and red endpapers of issue two. More to come.

Eros Issue 1


Publication: Eros Magazine
Designer: Herb Lubalin
Editor: Ralph Ginzburg
First published: 1962
Issue: 1
Only four issues of this hardback magazine were ever published before Ginzberg was indicted on charges of violating a federal statute that regulated obscene advertising and sentaced to four years in prison . Kuchar has just bought all four. We thought we'd show some of the highlights. Here is the first issue. Personally my favourite parts are the endpapers. See Eye 25 for more information.
