In a different post I wrote about my having been enjoying watching the 80's TV show Moon Lighting.
In an episode that I watched last night our Heroes were called upon to visit an 80's style "Dirty Book Store". And this was a bit before VHS popularized porn for the common man and woman. So the magazines were of the limited production quantity and quality. I was Shocked that they did not cover up the toys. Not even an attempt. I was Shocked by this because there in the foreground was a significant selection of supersized flesh colored dildos. They were in sufficiently good focus that you could EASILY make out the 'vascularity' and the texture. On the wall behind our heroes was a vast array of BDSM paraphernalia. again this stuff was in sufficiently good focus as to be able to tell exactly what was what.
I rather doubt that would get past the censors today. I suspect that the censors didn't know what they were seeing in these admittedly short scenes. But to MY "Well Trained Eye" EVERY thing was there. And as I recall having been to the wrong side of town on more than one occasion the magazine racks looked just like they did in those scenes.
