Of this publication (of which this is a facsimile issue), Steven Heller writes:

I was the art director and co-publisher of a late-sixties underground paper titled The New York Review of Sex (& Politics), a curious mix of new left politics and sexual “liberationsploitation” that grew out of a socio-political paper called The New York Free Press. When it was discovered that the Freep, as it was known, only sold out an edition when nudes (preferably women) were put on the cover, we participated in the launch of the first underground sex paper, Screw (and I became the first art director). But after some internal disputes with Screw‘s legendary publisher, Al Goldstein, the Freep folks broke away and founded the NYRS, mostly out of “revenge.”

Lots of good content here—include a full-frontal nude photo of our godson’s grandmother’s cousin.
