For much of the 20th century, the underground pornography industry
- made up of amateurs and hobbyists who created hardcore, explicit
"stag films" - went about its business hounded by reformers and law
enforcement, from local police departments all the way up to the
FBI. Rumors of this illicit activity circulated and became the
stuff of urban myth, but this period of pornography history remains
murky. Let's Go Stag! reveals the secrets of this underground
world. Using the archives of civic groups, law enforcement, bygone
government studies and similarly neglected evidence, archivist Dan
Erdman reconstructs the means by which stag films were produced,
distributed and exhibited, as well as demonstrate the way in which
these practices changed with the times, eventually paving the way
for the pornographic explosion of the 1970s and beyond. Let's Go
Stag! is sure to point the way for countless future researchers and
remain the standard work of history for this era of adult film for
a long time to come.
