Bondage Album No.1

A full-sized magazine printed on good quality, clay-coated stock, Bondage Album No.1 contains only illustrations. Artists include Eric Stanton, Gene Bilbrew, DiMulatto and others. Many of these pictures illuminated paperback novels in the Bizarre Library series.

Ropes, chains, and clamps accomplish the bondage of the title. But there's lots of painful discipline administered via belt, whip, hand, ruler, hairbrush and paddle. Some of the punishment far exceeds any reasonable purpose, reaching a sadistic level of brutality, as seen in Ruritanian art. Not for the squeamish.

Women mostly hurt women, but men also function as victims and antagonists.

As the 36-page magazine consists only of pictures, the content was disassembled, placing each image on a separate optimized ebook page. As possible, action details are repeated, enlarged, next to the complete picture or on the following page. Pictures on 100 pages.

Brightness and contrast were adjusted.

All new scans.

The Dungeon of Madam DeSade

Satellite, Irving Klaw's Nutrix Publishing Company and Ed Mishkin's Mutrix Publishing Company all had business addresses on Montgomery Street in Jersey City, New Jersey during the 1960s. That doesn't mean they actually did any business there though. New buildings and a parking lot now replace the previous structures.

Published at irregular intervals by Satellite Publishing Company (Stanley Malkin and Pat Martini) in the early 1960s, most Bound issues featured illustrations by Gene Bilbrew. The Satellite publication that was used as source material for this product probably was of a somewhat later vintage. Its illustrations show female nudity that Bound avoided.

With bondage themes, digest size, two-color covers and interior Gene Bilbrew pictures that illustrate typed fiction, The Dungeon of Madam DeSade mirrors Satellite's Bound series. These booklets tell tales of women of vague aristocracy hurting and restraining helpless beauties. The few men who serve them also suffer.

In Dungeon, mean Madam DeSade whips and binds lovely captives and the pretty young women who serve her. Chains, ropes, steel rods, cuffs and clamps effect the bondage.

She dresses in an assortment of sexy fetish costumes, described in the text and depicted by Mr. Bilbrew's precise pencil illustrations. The prose provides details of bodies, costumes and restraints, probably with too many modifiers. In dialog, captives ask for mercy. Onomotopoeia articulates the sound of whips in motion.

The booklet alternates pages of illustration with pages of clean text. The ebook presents all the content of the publication in the original sequence, including ads for Satellite products at the beginning and end.

Images have been adjusted to retain the artist's contour shadows. The ebook shows the abrasion of soft pencil lead on rough sketch paper, but brightened, delivering a unique visual experience, superior to that of printed paper.

In Dungeon of Madam DeSade, Mr. Bilbrew created superb illustrations of beauties in bondage and in charge. Pictures show Mr. Bilbrew's pencil work at the peak of his skill. With subtle shading, he delineates grand female curves and sexy faces, displayed to expose voluptuous femininity.
