New York: Forum International, 1991. V16 N10, January 1991. Distributed by Curtis Circulation Co. (CCC logo on front). Vintage erotica digest magazine featuring house favorite British model Joanne Latham on the front (Pat Hill), in colonial garb w/ the added touch of red nylons; she's posed in hats before but always to her advantage.

Joanne also appeared on several Midwood Books paperbacks.
