Flesh Fun (Vintage adult paperback, Joanne Latham Front Cover, 1980)
 
Los Angeles, CA: Sutton House Publishing, 1980. Sutton House Publishing SG505, cover price $2.95. Vintage adult paperback, distributed by Liverpool Distributors, featuring front cover photo of legendary British model, Joanne Latham. Only a year earlier, Joanne made appearances as cover model for several Midwood Book titles. Her she covers her buxom w/ purple shirt, a large violet flower in her pinned-up hair. LAB of Hollywood ads at the rear. 
 
Joanne carried on the British custom of producing women w/ mass appeal, voluptuous curves, & "Page Three Girl" credentials. From her youth in Wolverhampton to lessons in ballet, to first nude photos appropriated by Guccione at Penthouse in 1979, to her post-modeling career shortly before 1990, & her devotion to spirituality & yoga, Joanne's often beguiling icy gaze & unquestionable dimensions 40-25-35 still captivate on paper, vinyl album sleeves, even VHS slipcases for films she never appeared in. She also appeared on several magazine covers, including Game, Partner, Mayfair, Response, Oui Letters, Pillow Talk, & Family Letters. She also enjoyed moderate popularity appearing on foreign magazine covers, several from France, Germany, Spain. 
 
Very Good Plus, curling, faint creasing, light soil to rear. Scarce.
