Adventures of Fun

“Adventures of Fun" is all about good taste… and commanding a salary that allows one to make purchases to please your woman. Or, women. The piece suggests the exploration into the male psyche of success, and the ability to please (or seek pleasure) within. Playboy cutout from mid 1970’s. foreshadowed by a Lincoln advertisement from circa 1955.

Fade in Fade Out

“Fade in Fade Out” features a circa late 1970’s article covering the glooming economy, with cutouts taken from the cover which represent the crashing stock market. Capitalism is the way in the USA, however if you want to play in the major leagues, you best be prepared to endure the ups and downs. With the ups, come the goods.

Games

Courtship is weirder than “ours.” A solid conclusion and anecdote will never come for the games that we play, for the rules are dynamic and we’ll never quite figure each other out. However there is one thing that remains constant, and our (men’s) eyes will always be fixated on that one thing………

Ripped Off

Sell it. Sell the dream. Sell the desire. It’s common to have the ambition for self improvement, and even more common to have the role-girl-next-door-model selling it to the public… if they’d like to get anywhere, if ever. Pieces taken from 1970’s era playboy, with the sales pitch directly in the bulls-eye.
