Vintage All-Male Mags Back in Circulation From GayVM.com

LAS VEGAS — CWC Corporation, parent company of all-male studio Hot Desert Knights, has launched GayVM.com, a venture that collects "rare gay vintage magazines," paperbacks and adult periodicals into a searchable database and offers them for sale.

GayVM features select periodicals from the 1950s through the '90s, including Bear Magazine, Beau, Butt, Drummer, First Hand for Men, Guys, In Touch for Men, Men Magazine, Physique Pictorial, Playguy, Skinflicks, Stallion and Torso, among others.

"This new website features a state-of-the-art, user-friendly interface, with one of the largest collections of rare gay vintage magazines and paperbacks that are hard to find anywhere," a rep explained.

CWC Corp. was formed in 2011 with the purchase of Hot Desert Knights. Lee Watson, CWC's president enthused about the project.

"All of us at CWC Corporation and Hot Desert Knights are excited to be launching this new enhanced one-stop-shop gay vintage magazine store," he said. "We could not be happier or more pleased to be providing the very best library of gay literature for our customers to experience and collect. We are always working tirelessly at ways to enhance the services and products we offer our valued customers."

The GayVM catalog is continuously updated.

"Through our vast archival online catalog, you can trace the history and evolution of myriad aspects of LGBT history and culture," notes the rep, "including gay historical stories over the decades, legal contexts, health, lifestyle, politics, social attitudes, activism, gay rights, arts and literature and, of course, gay nude art."

"We aim to provide access to books not typically been offered by libraries or bookstores, to ensure that this valuable history stays both available and accessible to today's generation," the rep concluded. "These periodical pictorial magazine publications are of historical importance to the LGBT community; they have charted the key developments in LGBT history and culture for over 50 years. Some of these LGBT titles pre-date the 1969 Stonewall riots and span the history of the gay rights movement. GayVM prides itself on making these historical publications available and accessible for everyone to enjoy."
