Wow - more great stuff here, Phil, and I'll have a few specific comments in a moment. I hadn't realized your newspaper spanking collection was so enormous - I have the ones you've sent me, of course, but I'd never seen these. I think I should re-focus my "spare time" efforts, which have been focused on upgrading the pages with video players, to creating the new "Newspaper" section, which won't be hard. Then I can send you a template to use for creating your own web pages, which is very easy when all you're doing is putting up one picture plus comments.
Now let me reproduce some of your fine scans here with specific comments. Does everyone know how to reproduce a picture that has already been attached to this board (or linked - it makes no difference) without doing another attachment (please - we don't want duplicate attachments!)? Here is what you do:
1. Use the "Img" button at the top of your "Post a Reply" text box to generate the necessary code, which will look like this with the braces replaced by square brackets: {img}{/img} The idea is to put your image location in between the two tags, which will cause it to appear in the post.
2. Right-click on the image you want to reproduce. Choose "Copy Image Location" from the drop-down menu. The location is now in your clipboard.
3. Put your cursor in between the tags, and then either right-click again and select "Paste" or use the shortcut "Ctrl + V". The URL should be copied. It will look something like this: {img}
download/file.php?id=3546{/img} (remember, it will have square brackets not curly braces). This code will cause the image to appear when you submit the post.
Simple, huh?
This one was o.k. except for the anti-spanking bias of the editor - "violent methods" indeed! By the way, Judy looks a little like
Meg Myles, the very busty pin-up of the day. I think I've posted photos of Meg somewhere, but if not, I've got more and they'll go up eventually.
I actually found a copy of Corey Ford's
Salt Water Taffy in a college library around 1980. It had a number of spankings of June (the girl spankee in the photo), some of them illustrated and all intended for humorous effect. Needless to say, I loved it.
However, I had no idea what the models' names were until now.
This artist's style reminds me a little of Brian Tarsis. Now as for Lupe Velez, long-time CSR readers may remember that she was
satirized and spanked as "Rupy Lavez" in a
Kayo Ward boxing strip that I posted on the main site back in 2011. (Follow the link to get to the page).
Senior CSR Resident Artist Dan Rivera actually remembered the strip from the late 30's and gave some further explanation which I included on the page (his recollection was uncanny).
Lupe Velez was actually spanked in the movie
Hot Pepper (1933).
This one stirred memories of that crazy "paddle" they used - I know I've seen it before. It was advertised for use in such hazings, and the manufacturer had some related devices that also used these special cartridges, which must have been where his profit was. Unfortunately, "enhancing" the simple but highly effective
wooden paddle with a blank cartridge was a really stupid idea, and I don't believe it ever caught on. It was safe enough, if you weren't complete morons as these guys obviously were, but it didn't add anything to basic concept of paddle-swats. These idiots used the wrong side of the "paddle" and when the smokeless powder ignited (I'm guessing that's what was used) the hot gases and wadding(?) were blown out toward the spankee.
(I'm sure she wasn't seriously injured as the "penetration" referred to would have been only by tiny carbon particles, but there was certainly the potential for burns. Two layers of clothing should have provided some protection, but really! Everyone knows that even if you're firing a blank cartridge, you still don't point it at anyone, right? Just shoot up in the air.)
What's most interesting is that this was not some obnoxious M/M paddling scene, of which there were a horrific number in Golden Age comics (I just found one in
Wilbur, an Archie-imitator), but a great M/F opportunity where some female "queen" gets hazed by the men. This happens to be a great fantasy of mine, at least where some super-heroine is getting paddled by the guys as part of her initiation. But most fraternal societies have traditionally been same-sex, so M/F paddlings must have always been rare. There were at least some F/F paddlings of course, college sororities and that old
Bumblefoots paddling I've posted in the Humor Gallery.
