Don’t let anyone tell you than porn is a modern ‘problem’ and a symptom of young adults who have taken to wayward ways. Explicit visuals of adult sexuality have been around for a very long time. Retro Porn Archive is a wonderful testament to genuine vintage erotica that was popular during granny and gramps’ days - and even before!
As with many cultural phenomena, adult entertainment is likely to follow cycles parallel to other industries like music and television. When ‘new’ gets tired and worn out, something ‘old’ becomes the ‘new new’. Now that everyone has super high resolution color monitors on their desktops, a hand-picked monster collection of AUTHENTIC grainy, scratched, black and white photographs and video clips is a marvellous retreat from the usual pornocopia.
I’ve perused through many ‘vintage’ porn sites in the past, with general dissatisfaction. Often, these ‘retro’ sites simply scan old black and white adult magazines from the seventies to offer as their tribute to sexier days gone by. Well, that’s not really vintage porn. Until you have experienced the awe of browsing a library of over 45,000 pics of natural men and women engaged in a multitude of carnal acts from times, most of us never even imagined had that kind of naughtiness going on, or even captured on film, you have not truly experienced vintage erotica.
If you are in the mood to view something genuinely sexy, featuring regular folks from the past, with all their natural tributes (no fake boobies then and furry was in big time), then I highly recommend you spend some time at Retro Porn Archive. This is, by far, the best and most comprehensive collection of porn from the past, I have seen to date.
It’s funny what we take for granted about modern-day erotica. With so many sites nowadays claiming to offer ‘all-natural’, (even though some of the larger endowed women seem suspiciously stacked), you don’t have to worry about any of that when you’re looking through erotica which was produced before implants were invented. Not only that, but you get to view sexuality among people who were clearly more comfortable with their given body shapes and sizes. If you’re tired of looking at bleached, shaved anorexic lookalikes from the Valley, you’ll love the variety of players at Retro Porn Archive!
For the most part, this site does a great job of proving an antique look and feel - consistent with their subject matter. That is, until you get to the members’ side and get flashed by all the other ‘modern day’ (colorful) bonus content members get as well. That’s just an aesthetic issue and not a content issue by any means. Navigating the pictures or over 15 gigs of video is a breeze. You have 4 main choices: Photos (Hardcore/Softcore) and Videos (Hardcore/Softcore). This is great for those who want to peek at the classier softer erotica without necessarily viewing the hardcore.
The pictures are scans of old, black and white (and sepia) photographs and postcards - some are really scratched up and grainy but the overall mix is appropriately authentic. I was surprised to see how much hardcore they were able to collect from the past. The videos are offered as AVI files and I did find them a bit more cumbersome to view than streaming WMV, but regardless, the collection would not be complete without them. The bonus content includes Hentai Video World, Home Spy Video, Homemade Vids, Private Home Clips, Security Cams Fuck, and Porn for Relax.
I recommend you check out Retro Porn Archive at $29.95 for 30 days. This is a perfect site to review with your loved one as it will generate a night full of interesting comments. You can sign up for 90 days at $56.95 but I suggest you see how much content you can digest in one month first - after all, this is an archive and there is a limited supply of this content.
