Auto-Fellatio outlaw


Then what happened? I got a chance to read the entire article – David Hurles: The Outlaw Who Invented Rough-Trade Porn by Kelvin Blunt – and a bunch of stuff jumped out at me!! – like I had no idea David Hurles actually did nude modeling! Kinda makes sense, being in front of the camera can give you insights into being behind the camera – but then I read this incredible part of Blunt’s article:

“At Guild Press in D.C., H. Lynn Womack commissioned Auto-Fellatio & Masturbation. Unable to find a model who could suck his own dick, Hurles did it himself. The book was seized in a raid, and Hurles was summoned to D.C. to testify. After five hours sweating outside the courtroom, he was told to go home. The judge, apparently, could not face asking a man about sucking his own cock.”

what the !!!!!

And then what happened?? A little internet search, and I see someone sold the dang thing recently and I nab the cover photo and … then? I searched my old harddrive and discovered I actually owned the publication, and sold it in 2005!! I managed to scan only a couple pics, but I think I have David’s – perhaps he is “Bill” – case 1103???


long-time readers may remember that while I have sold a shitload of porn over the years, and only recently began to keep decent quality scans of the magazines, I almost always kept the html file I worked on before uploading the thing to the eBay or other auction sites. (What was that pre- Adult Auctions Only site?) And not only did I have a couple of mediocre images, but also a description which included this:

BILL – case 1103 – “He experimented with auto-fellatio, was unsuccessful at first, but when he attempted it repeatedly he became more proficient at it.” 14 pages, 13 photos – see example below”

did you catch that? 13 photos!!!! OMG – We must find that publication!!

Joe Hardee

Last spring you may remember I posted about Joe Hardee; well, actually Glen Armstrong – but Joe Hardee was his Old Relable name, and once I found some video of him doing his thing for Mr. Hurles, I set out to do a post – and, guess, dear readers! Yes, languished in my drafts folder until today, when I got wind of a very cool Substack post – David Hurles: The Outlaw Who Invented Rough-Trade Porn by Kelvin Blunt (OK, the author emailed me) – and rather than wait til I get around to finishing the article and posting about it, this was a good chance to post this video, and get some of you Old Reliable fans to check out the piece – 1/2 way through and I’m enjoying it!

I suspect the Old Reliable tapes that Joe appears in – VT-15, VT-30, and VY-229 – are all the same footage? This one above? Anyone know – lemme know!

I know these “tie” pics aren’t the usual OLD RELIABLE, and maybe that’s why I like ’em – or maybe it’s just the shorter hair? or this boy’s huge cock, below pointing at the tie???


These pics from a publication called Old Reliable MALES Vol 1/2 – you can find a lot more Springer over at Old Reliable

Old Reliable 45

Director: David Hurles – Old Reliable 45 (Best Solos) (1985)

previously posted in 2006 – Old Reliable – indeed! – and, alas, I sold the tape that year as well. Why didn’t I keep a clip of Eric Ryan, who was on the same tape??! Back to this guy – O.R. guys are generally considered amateurs, but only a pro can whack off successfully to this soundtrack!

Hurles muscle dad

can’t recall where I snagged this little clip – but meanwhile, whatever happened to that David Hurles documentary Joe Gage was working on a few years back?
