Welcome to Vintage Erotica dot NET – Where the Past Never Looked So Deliciously Present!
1920's through the 1970's
Erotic photography generally produces a composed image of a subject in a still position. Though the subjects of erotic photography are usually completely or mostly unclothed, that is not a requirement.
This is where you can step into a world where allure evolves before your very eyes, from the Roaring Twenties to the Swinging Seventies. Our gallery is a veritable feast, showcasing five decades of delightful debauchery and the changing face of desire.
See how seduction styled itself through the years:
- 1920s: Flapper girls and speakeasy sirens
- 1930s: Hollywood glamour with a risqué twist
- 1940s: Pin-ups boosting more than just morale
- 1950s: Behind the facade of picket fence propriety
- 1960s-70s: Flower power and free love unbound
1800's to the 1920's
Classic Retro Erotic photography is often distinguished from nude photography, which contains nude subjects not necessarily in an erotic situation, and pornographic photography, which is of a sexually explicit nature. Pornographic photography is generally defined as “obscene” and lacking in artistic/aesthetic value. However, the line between art and pornography has been both socially and legally debated, and many photographers have created work that intentionally ignores these distinctions.
Whether you’re a nostalgia enthusiast or a curious newcomer to retro revelry, our photographs will make your heart race faster than a Model T Ford. So loosen your collar, kick off your go-go boots, and prepare for a titillating trip through time.
After all, they don’t call it the “good old days” for nothing!
“After looking at the naked bodies without plastic tits, enhanced thighs and all the other plastic girl accessories, I started to appreciate the real bodies, in true human proportions, even in black and white… It is definitely worth a visit and I found it to be quite refreshing in these days of ever decreasing boundaries on the net.” – Adult Stars Magazine

The Art of Erotic Photography
Erotic photographs are normally intended for commercial use, including mass-produced items such as decorative calendars, pinups, and men’s magazines like Penthouse and Playboy. However, many art photographers have also explored explicit or erotic imagery, pushing the boundaries of creativity and self-expression. Additionally, some erotic photographs are created for a more intimate audience – a subject’s partner, making them a personal and private form of artistic expression.
Unearthing Forgotten Treasures
But wait, there’s more! While other sites churn out content faster than a rabbit in spring, we’re out there like Indiana Jones in fishnets, braving dusty attics and musty basements to unearth forgotten photographic phantasmagoria. It’s not just a job, it’s a passion – and oh boy, are we passionate!

Magazine and Book Scans
Hold onto your hats, history buffs and vintage vixens! Let’s take a cheeky peek behind the velvet curtain of yesteryear’s boudoir photography.
From professional posers to celebs with a wild streak, our forebears weren’t shy about showing some skin. But don’t expect to find grandma’s favorite movie star in their birthday suit – most big names kept their skivvies firmly in place. The trailblazing tease? None other than stage siren Adah Isaacs Menken, who dared to bare all the way back in the 1860s. Talk about a Civil War-era civil disobedience!
The Golden Age of Pinups
While full-frontal famous folks were rare, plenty of silver screen sirens got pulses racing as pinup girls. These bathing beauties and bombshells knew how to work a camera faster than you can say “va-va-voom!”
The Tide Turns
For decades, it was ladies who lit up the lens. But hold onto your bell-bottoms, because the 1970s ushered in an era of equal-opportunity ogling. Suddenly, hunky men were striking poses too, proving that when it comes to the art of allure, turnabout is fair play!
