Swinger Lifestyle Wife Swapping Vintage Sleaze Paperbacks

Swinger Lifestyle Wife Swapping Vintage Sleaze Paperbacks

The topic of Swinging was always a popular one for authors writing sleaze novels during the late 1960's and early 1970's. Hundreds of books were published with swinging themes from wife swapping clubs to the cess pool suburbs full of husband swapping perversions! Phrases like "switch Partners", "Wife swapping", "Suburban sex cult", and "Weekend Party" were all common as titles for these swinger novels. The best part of these books today is their awesome cover art illustrations and the great taglines and copy. 

A great reference book to start with on Sleaze paperbacks is Sin-A-Rama: The Sex Sleaze paperbacks of the Sixties. It shows hundreds of great vintage sleaze books!

Vintage sleaze paperbacks are a great collectible-they can easily be found in ebay which has a vintage paperback category. Typing in the word "Sleaze", "sleaze paperback", or "sleaze pb" will allow you to find such campy kitsch treasures on ebay. 

Collecting vintage paperbacks in a topical way can get you an entire collection of gay/lesbian themed books, SF books, Westerns, or any sort of odd assortment from topics like vintage paperbacks with cover art showing deep sea equipment to books having to do with the Wife Swapping phenomenon.
