Eros Publishing products numbered Volume 4, Number 4 were usually onetime efforts, not periodical magazines. Other examples of this one-shot, one-off numbering include A Nostalgic Look at Bettie Page, Dominated in Rubber and The Mistress.

Slave Trade displays competence in every aspect of the publication. Professionalism appears in clear photographs, conscientious models, authentic bondage devices (not clothesline) and skillful narrative prose with appropriate dialog.

In the park, Scott meets Nick, who's dressed in leather. Instant attraction proves catalyst for immediate pants removal and penis worship.

The new friends adjourn to Nick's rustic apartment. There, he introduces Scott to the pleasures of bondage, beginning with a leather hood, collar and wrist cuffs. Wearing a leather body halter, Nick ensures access to to all of Scott's best parts by installing a spreader bar at ankles and attaching him to the wall with black rope.

Pictures show well-formed men fondling, handling and almost licking. With Scott's shorts in shreds, Nick seems to enter from behind, but no explicit penetration is shown.

All the content of the 48-page magazine appears in the ebook, including ads. A few page layouts were revised to accommodate images that span two pages.

Image editing adjust tonality and reduces shadows.

Male nudity.

With gestures and text suggesting consensuality, Rough Date would probably serve better as title of this fine work of man-to-man domination play. For its day, the piece shows audacity and quality in the explicit presentation of power games between strangers, a popular idiom in gay erotica.
