Leonard, Gloria (publisher)
 
High Society (4 vintage adult magazines, 1978-85)
 
New York: High Society, 1978-85. Four vintage adult magazines, from one of America's longest-running adult magazines, published by Gloria Leonard, the first female pornographic magazine editor/publisher. Still active to date, the website boasts "More than 60 Years," leading us to believe origins are around 1967, though most accounts have the beginning at 1976. Either way, high layout quantity, nearly hard-core throughout, often big name models like Julia Parton. Very similar to Hustler.
