17th-century porn auctioned for thousands
December 16, 2004
LONDON (Reuters) - The world's first known piece of
printed pornography, described as the "quintessence of
debauchery," has been sold for 45,600 pounds ($89,000),
well above expectations, Sotheby's auction house said Thursday.
"Sodom," penned in the mid-1670s, has been attributed
to John Wilmot, the second Earl of Rochester. It was
described by Sotheby's as having pornography "in almost every line."
The piece, which was sold to an anonymous buyer, had been
expected to raise 25,000 to 35,000 pounds ($48,000 to $68,000).
"It is one of the most notorious publications in literature
and makes most pornography written 300 years later
seem tame," said Peter Beal, Sotheby's book specialist
The book focuses on the decision made by a lustful
king to "set the nation free" by allowing "buggary"
to be "used thro' all the land" and then details
the dire consequences.

That's not pornography. That's 15th century version of benefits

My main problem with 17th Century porn is that unless it was
hand-illuminated by someone really dedicated to getting it right, its in
black & white and thus, literally cannot show pink. Where's the fun in
that?

Ha! The Romans had Porn before there was even a word for it!
Pompei had a mosiac that depected the first known lesbian sex scene.
The Catholic Church ordered all the Porn hidden and they have been recently put
back out on display.
