Ed Wood’s Sleaze Paperbacks

ed wood book 01 Ed Woods Sleaze Paperbacks

Sleaze-master general Ed Davis Wood Jr was responsible for some of the strangest pulp-fiction porn novels of the 50s and 60s. To call him eccentric is a bit of an understatement, his demise and eventual death at the hands of alcohol saw him die in poverty but along the way he wrote a series of oddball stories fusing ’shock’ sex tales of biker chicks, horror orgies and surpressed desire in suburbia, with his own brand of psychology, sociology and philosophical argument. Boo-Hooray has tracked down some of his rarest and most collectable books and will be displaying them in the gallery from November. The covers alone worth the visit.

  1. These are rad. I love the paperbacks from the New English Library as well.
