![69 Barrow Street by Sheldon Lord, (c)1959.
Cover art by Paul Rader.
“Their love was right! But their sex was wrong.”
“A Startlingly Frank Novel of Love in the Shadow World of the Third Sex.”
The terms ‘third sex,’ ‘twilight love,’ and ‘shadow world’ were all euphemisms for gay/lesbian literature [although with this book no subtleties are needed].](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ls3ax4kIMt1r3dllwo1_500.jpg)

Dykes on Bikes, Alan Marshall, Pleasure Reader #148.
“There’s no hell on wheels like…”
As a female, I’m distracted by the fact that riding a motorcycle without a bra/shirt looks like it would be very uncomfortable at high speeds. Just saying.
Dedicated to the good, bad & unintentionally hilarious covers of pulp fiction novels. These covers usually featured provocative lines of text with lurid illustrations. Pulps also trafficked in stereotypes, so please enjoy these covers within their historical context. You may also see the occasional lady or man bits. FYeah Pulp Fiction Covers is lovingly maintained by a red-headed librarian trapped in the Midwest.
