Something I found today...

So, I was pushing shopping carts into the depot at my supermarket, and it was going as usual: boring and not worth much. However, something unusual caught my eye. Something very unusual, that had no place in a "family" environment...

...Two vintage 1980's super-issues of Penthouse, stuck in one of the baskets. I said "...What the fuck?", and just to make sure, I picked them up. Sure enough, they were real (flipping the cover and revealing the index proved that). But, who the hell left them in that shopping cart, and moreover, why would they do such a thing? I went with my gut feeling and put them in one of the trash bins... Covered in newspapers and discount papers, of course. When I had a clearing, I grabbed the stash and put it in my locker, where it remains. I probably won't get to look them over anytime soon to see if they're special, rare issues, but I couldn't just let them go to the landfill. They're vintage, out-of-print magazines, and I like to collect vintage stuff.

And hey, if they happen to be rare, I might be able to fetch a good price for them. :p

What sort of sicko buys "found" porn? I feel uncomfortable enough holding cash or reading newspapers that have been left on the train.

Second Hand porn, not recommended in my book (I don't actually have a book, but if I did and there was a section on second hand porn, the advice would be to steer well clear).

Who said I was doing anything like that? They've been in my locker since yesterday, and I've only seen to covers and the indexes. I'll probably be throwing them away as it is, because they smell like old cigarettes, and I really don't want that smell to be permanent in my locker.

Though the thought of selling "found" porn is hilarious.

As I've already said, you, or someone on here, is bound to be able to come up with a plausible reason as to how they came into your possession.

There's one way to find out if they're salable...

eBay 'em. If they don't clear postage after being put up for auction, then toss 'em.

Just be slow and patient, and it will be coming.

Reminds me of last summer when I cleared out the attic full of my father's junk. There was some porn from the 80s (not to mention more recent stuff) in there - I didn't look at it but it still struck me as (if that's possible) even tackier than current porn mags because of the awful hairstyles on the cover and the cheap quality printing... Ugh
