Middlesex England: Eve Productions Cinecenta 1969. Vintage black-and-white double weight British still photograph from the 1968 US film. Rubber stamp on the verso of COLTMAN DISPLAYS LTD a distributor in Middlesex England. <br/><br/>"Vixen!" was one of Meyer's best sleaziest and most commercially successful films made at the peak of his independent productions after "Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!" in 1965 and before "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" in 1970. What is less well known is that this film by way of Ms. Gavin marked a breakthrough in the onscreen portrayal of women in terms of sexual aggression using the then-new platform of late 1960s American independent cinema and the aftermath of the Summer of Love as a canvas. <br/><br/>Gavin's titular character is a married woman whose sexual boundaries are none but instead of being a typical sex romp the film heads off into areas that can be reasonably described as unexplored by sexploitation films including communism race relations political debate and terrorist activity. But also present in the film are many of the genre's more familiar themes breast size incest nonstop sexual activity and a generous dose of humor. <br/><br/>8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus with edge creasing and a single short tear. <br/><br/>Complete collation details available on request. Eve Productions Cinecenta unknown books

Supvervixens Original Spanish poster for the 1975 film
Madrid Spain: RM Films International 1986. Original Spanish one-sheet poster for the 1986 release of the 1975 US film. Features buxom Christy Hartburg who starred as SuperLorna. Hartburg along with Kitten Natividad and Uschi Digard has become one of the more recognizable faces of Russ Meyer filmdom even though this was her only film. <br/><br/>Clint Pitts operates a small-town gas station where he is constantly harassed by his wife SuperAngel Eubank. On one occasion the police are called and Harry Napier arrives and is promptly seduced by SuperAngel however his impotence becomes him. Stricken by SuperAngel's taunts Harry murders her in a rather gruesome bathtub scene and pins the act on Clint. On the lam Clint meets a farmer with a heyper-sexual Austrian mail-order bride named SuperSoul Digard. In keeping with director Meyer's powerful female roles SuperSoul rapes Clint a few times notably in a barn where the farmer discovers his wife's indiscretions. Clint meets up with SuperVixen Eubank an inexplicable reincarnation of SuperAngel and the two fall in love. Harry is however still hot on the trail. <br/><br/>Meyer's successful return to independent filmmaking after the big-budget "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" 1970 and the unfortunate films "The Seven Minutes" 1971 and "Black Snake" 1973. Arguably the most entertaining Meyer project with all the trademarks present: strong sexual women impotent men and healthy doses of sex violence and nudity with a nod to the desert violence of Italian Euro Westerns of the 1960s. <br/><br/>Shot on location in Arizona California and New Mexico. <br/><br/>27 x 41 inches folded as issued.

Romania: Eve Productions 1970. Two vintage oversize borderless black-and-white lobby cards from a 1970s Romanian release of the 1965 US film. Rubber-stamped on the versos MOTQRPSICHO sic FAVORIT indicative of the Cinema Favorit in Romania once the largest and most popular cinema in the country and one that operated even under the then-Communist regime. One lobby card also bears the imprint of the cinema on the recto. <br/><br/>Seen in the lobby cards is Haji as a voluptuous Cajun woman named Ruby and Alex Rocco as a veterinarian named Cory whose wife was raped by a sex-hungry motorcycle gang the same Vietnam Vet-led gang that killed Ruby's husband. <br/><br/>The last of Meyer's "noir" cycle 1964-1965 or "Gothic" period as Meyer puts it a series of sexploitation films shot in black-and-white with powerful psycho-sexual female characters male impotence and a serious dramatic plot involving less of the "nudie" filmmaking style so prominent in the director's early films. Other films in his "Gothic" period include "Lorna" 1964 "Mudhoney" 1965 and the epic and legendary "Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill! " 1965. "Fanny Hill" 1964 snuck in right after "Lorna" although that film is generally left out of the "Gothic" period. <br/><br/>"Motorpsycho!" was written by James Griffith who starred as the Preacher narrator in "Lorna" and the underrated Hal Hopper another Meyer regular. The film explores not only the ever present "biker" culture and its association with uncontrolled violence but the lasting effects of war or post-traumatic stress disorder particularly the Vietnam War; Meyer's statement on PTSD and Vietnam stands as one of the earliest inferences. <br/><br/>9.25 x 11.5 inches. One card is matte the other glossy. Very Good plus overall both with pinholes at the corners edge creases slight curling. Eve Productions unknown books
