LAS VEGAS — Arrow Productions and Deep Throat Digital announced an online auction beginning today for limited edition original adult film posters from the 1970’s era.
The companies said that after uncovering a small cache of sexual history artifacts they decided to bring the artwork to market. Pieces include original artwork from “California Gigolo,” two Gail Palmer films and more. The films capture the popularity of the legendary Johnny Wadd actor John C. Holmes.
According to the organizers, the posters, which were intentionally more “tame” in flavor than their X-rated movie subject matter, used to hang in the glassed-in marquees of the adult walk-in movie theaters that dotted busy streets in major cities across the U.S. and abroad.
Four of the limited edition poster art pieces have been professionally framed and prepared for the public Internet auction that began today and will run for 10 days, ending Jan. 13 at 11 p.m. EST.
“For the gentleman, pimp or alpha superstar who has everything for their man cave, we invite you to have a look and consider owning a piece of sexual and free speech history in the form of art that can look smashing, even above the perfect couch or easy chairs,” the organizers said.
The Auctionopia platform has been chosen to facilitate the sale that includes built-in social media sharing and instant messaging tools, as well as the use of PayPal “for the financial security of all parties involved in high value Internet purchases.”
A portion of the net auction proceeds from each piece will be donated to an adult entertainment industry supported cause.
