![POLICE SURVEILLANCE](/images/headline/4263.png) Rumors spread, gossip revealed, scandals shared. ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_20.jpg)
We're back to The National Police Gazette with an issue published this month in 1963. The cover is given to Jolanda Addolori and Anthony Quinn, who were unmarried but had a child together, a real no-no for the time period, particularly when you already have a wife and four children, as Quinn did. His wife was actress Katherine DeMille, who was most active during the 1930s, before devoting time to motherhood. Quinn eventually divorced her and married Addolori in 1966. Elsewhere in the issue you see Bobby Darin and Sandra Dee, get nice photos of Grazia Buccella and Veronique Vendell, and learn about the ring prowess of Sonny Liston and Max Schmeling. You can see many more Gazettes at our tabloid index located here. ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_02.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_03.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_04.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_05.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_06.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_07.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_08.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_09.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_10.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_11.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_12.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_13.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_14.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_15.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_16.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_17.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_18.jpg) ![](/images/postimg/police_surveillance_19.jpg)
![WINKIN' CONTINENTAL](/images/headline/267.png) Was it journalism, pornography, or both? ![](/images/postimg/winkin_continental_01.jpg)
Here’s one of our favorite old magazines, the great Continental Film Review, with a cover shot of one our favorite vintage actresses, Christina Lindberg, who you may remember from our post about Sex & Fury a while back. CFR was published in Britain and, like other magazines of its ilk, such as France’s Cine-Revue, purposely blurred the line between journalism and smut by publishing sober reviews and features, while not-so-incidentally showing acres of skin. Their wry, we’re-not-really-porn approach was a roaring success across four decades, from 1952 until 1983. We have some racy interior pages below, featuring more Lindberg, as well as Marion Forster, Gabriela Grimaldi, Veronique Vendell and others. And at bottom, in the final panel, we've located the orginal image upon which CFR based their cover image. Enjoy.
