Tina Means Sex! + Gee-Whiz Peek-A-Beauts!

In our last post we saw an article from the July 1958 issue of Foto-Rama Vol 5 #12, and as promised here is the cover story / photo lay-out featuring gorgeous, legendary actress / model redhead, Tina Louise-- a mere half decade away from her beloved, sexy role as "Ginger the Movie Star" on Gilligan's Island-- apologies about the scribbles on the cover! Also, post padded out with a handful of "Peek-A-Beauts" from the May 1960 issue of Gee-Whiz! Vol. 3 #28, which features a few more lovely legends like Betty Page, Tempest Storm, and more!

Beware Marrying... the Lady Always Wins

From our last child's digest magazine post, to a couple of "articles" ripped from the pages of two separate adult digest magazines of the 50's, AEET shifts gears and exposes the sexier (or is that sexist?) side of um, sex. First, the obviously scientifically accurate "Beware Marrying These Four Women" from the February 1954 issue of Carnival Vol. 1 #3, and then the photo frolic fun of "The Lady Always Wins" from the July 1958 issue of Foto-Rama Vol. 5 #12... we'll see more from the Foto-Rama issue in the next post too (ya'll like Tina Louise, right?)

The Wolf O' Lantern / Broomhilda and the Bat

Well, we've already devoured all the Halloween candy, but we still have a few AEET leftover treats to share with you throughout the month of November, we certainly hope you still have a stomach for 'em! The October 1968 issue of Humpty Dumpty's Magazine (for little children) is full of spooky holiday flavor highlights: stories, games, poems, art, the usual and unusual... and it's neat to think that this issue came out the same year I was born-- so this post is dedicated to lil 'ol ME and my first Halloween! Hey it's my blog, I can do what I want...

College Inn Porterhouse '50

Okay, I said we'd keep it going with a few more leftover Halloween posts here in November, but first let's share some imagery that better represents this thankful month of food Food FOOD-- in the form of the gorgeous western / cattle wrasslin' mural motifs by Robert Sinnott that highlight this stunning (and HUGE) College Inn Porterhouse menu from 1950. Located in the Hotel Sherman, Chicago IL, this restaurant is fondly remembered by many back in its day for excellent eats, as well as also being one of the venues that broadcast ABC's incredibly popular radio show, "The Breakfast Club with Don McNeill." But for now we're talkin' dinner, so tuck in your napkin, order-up some extra hot rolls, and ring that dinner bell for a juicy Deviled Chopped Sirloin Steak (served with a grilled banana and hot sauce), or maybe try the disjointed Mammy Fried Chicken!
