THE SCARCE FIRST 10 ISSUES OF THIS REGIONAL NEWSLETTER, THE PRECURSOR TO FLYNT'S FAMOUS (AND INFAMOUS) BEST-SELLING MAGAZINE, HUSTLER. This was distributed regionally in Ohio as a promotional publication for Flynt's strip clubs (far more modest than the glossy Hustler Magazine, which debuted nationally in 1974). This newsletter offered a rare view into Flynt's entrepreneurial beginnings and laid the groundwork for his publishing empire. These mimeograph-style newsletters have black and white pin-up photography, features on house dancers, adult club news, and more. This lot is essential for collectors of modern adult media or Flynt memorabilia. From issue #3: ?As anyone who as ever visited a Hustler club in Columbus, Dayton, or Cincinnati knows, the Hustler is dedication to providing the modern businessman and woman with the kind of sophisticated entertainment they are demanding." As an aside, the origin of this newsletter was depicted in the award-winning film, The People Vs. Larry Flynt (1996), directed by Milos Forman, and starring Woody Harrelson, Courtney Love, and Edward Norton.Measurements: 12"L x 11"W x 2"H.
