VINTAGE FETISH: IRVING KLAW
Books published by and about Irving Klaw, whose imprint ‘Nutrix’ began selling digest-sized fetish books in the late 1950s, featuring illustrations by some of the best fetish artists in the business (Eric Stanton, Gene Bilbrew, Ruiz, Jim, and many others). Klaw also produced similar books using bondage photographs instead of illustrations.

The story conveys what some girls will go through in order to get into a sorority. Adolfo Ruiz (labelled as "the Mexican artist") was one of the most productive artists for Irving Klaw in the 1950s. This edition has a Mutrix cover with Candor Books on the title page (both were Mishkin imprints). The copyright is still attributed to Nutrix and the contents are entirely by Klaw.
