Black Busts – Vol 01 No 02 (1973)
Volume 1, Number 2 of Black Busts (1973) is a bold tribute to the power, pride, and beauty of the Black female form.

With a mix of erotic fiction, sociocultural articles, and striking pictorials, this edition reflects a deep commitment to celebrating Black womanhood without apology.
Featuring models such as Clorese, Miss Topsy (NTF), and Sylvia Bayo, this issue includes a strong editorial voice that supports both the women’s liberation movement and the importance of visibility for Black women in media.
