Philadelphia Briefs from December 6, 1933, with a story about lawbreaking and vice taking place at a brokerage called D. Leary Investments. How times have changed. Today bankers don’t bother screwing prostitutes anymore—the general public is a much cheaper lay.

In the U.S., Major League Baseball’s World Series begins tonight when the Philadelphia Phillies play the New York Yankees in New York City. These are two of the oldest organizations in the majors—the Phillies date from 1883, and the Yankees were formed in 1901 as the Baltimore Orioles, before moving to New York in 1913 and rechristening themselves with a new name. So in honor of these venerable teams, and baseball in general, we’ve cobbled together a collection of baseball-themed pulp magazines—seven, actually, for the number of games we want the series to go. But however long it lasts, let’s hope the games are entertaining and the fiery rioting in the winning town is non-lethal. Most of these images came from here.

Here's one of our Amsterdam finds, a 1967 copy of a Dutch cinema magazine called Skoop. There was a giant stack of them, but we liked this one because its cover featured a shot of Audrey Hepburn we’ve never seen before. It also had a twenty-page interview with Alain Resnais, as well as a long feature on the 1967 Cannes Film Festival. We can’t read any of it, but the pictures sure are pretty. Below are a few interior pages, including images of Julie Andrews, Lex de Bruyn and Delphine Seyrig.

Front cover of the depression-era tabloid Philadelphia Briefs published today in 1933, with a story about cut-rate prostitution, which was exposed by an investigative reporter who of course provides all the lurid details of the transaction. The cover model is actress Jill Dennett, who appeared in about a dozen films as an extra or uncredited minor cast member. We'll have more on Philadelphia Briefs later.
