Delving from the bottomless hoard of loops continuously surfacing from various collections, these archivists of early smut are able to whip out just about anything. For example; in Vol. 7 ('40s to '70s, mostly B&W) a noticeable highlight for some would be the eighth segment. The female performer is actually billed as Barbra Streisand and damned if it doesn't look a whole hell of a lot like her — nose and all! Although it probably isn't her, I still found myself humming "People" as she played with the guy's rubber. The other ten clips carried themes like orgies, shower fun, super suckers, and a nasty photographer.

Vol. 181 is devoted to 8mm quickies from England. The performers usually project a rigidity and air of haughtiness as though they are doing it just to be doing it. Proper manners for proper propagation? Yes — until they finally get down and get down. A strong attempt at themes is also prevalent: dancing party, waiter, cat burglar, auto-sex, misconduct, night school; you get the idea.

What about the actual sex acts? Overall, as expected, they are quick, sometimes methodical, and accomplished in (usually) nine minutes or less. Despite the time constraint, most are quite adept at the task at hand.
