Smoothies – Vol 01 No 04 (April–June 1975)
Smoothies Volume 1 Number 4, published in Spring 1975 by Chelsea Publishing Company, is a 64-page vintage adult magazine that combines refined nude photography with articles and editorials exploring the cultural and artistic aspects of sensual expression. Distributed by Parliament News, Inc., this issue captures the mid-70s balance of erotic art, freedom of speech, and intellectual commentary.
The editorial in this edition strongly defends freedom of the press and opposes censorship, responding to efforts to ban newsstand sales of adult magazines. It argues that the right to access sexually oriented material is as vital as any other freedom of choice, making this issue both an artistic and philosophical statement on liberty and erotic expression.
