First issue of Walter Hale's San Francisco Confidential from 1955, a well-produced burlesque magazine with great orange and brown inks featuring a large cast of performers of the day including Tempest Storm, Zee Zee Martine, Venus, Patti Wagin, Ricki Covette, Lily St. Cyr, and many others as well as gossip on Charlie Chaplin, Hedy Lemar, and other subject.

This presents as a solid mid-grade issue but is missing six pages.  Still, a very cool magazine.  Hard to find issue.


I'm not an expert grader, so please look carefully at the many quality photos and determine the grade and condition for yourself. I'm happy to answer any questions.

If you buy multiple items, ask about a combined shipping discount - I am happy to include a few comics or pulps in the same parcel, as that works for both me and you.  Comics and magazines will be shipped bagged and boarded and sandwiched between cardboard with care to keep stickier tapes away from the collectible, just as I like to receive them. I pride myself in doing my part towards fast shipping, as I'll almost always ship out the same day or next after payment.

Returns accepted within 30 days, buyer pays shipping unless something is missing from description or not visible in photos.
