wish I had a better version of this photo by Roy Blakey; also wish I could narrow down the month this PLAYGUY, Vol 5, No 1 – I am fairly sure it is 1980 – December? January?

Can’t recall why this TCS Studios post got started, and remained in the drafts folder for a couple years. A note “8 minutes previews” was my only clue, so I tracked down the clip, and you see it above highlighting some of the 8-10 films from this Studio. I listed only the ones I think were produced by TCS, and if you look at GEVI you’ll see a handful more distributed by them as well.
Of note, as I hadn’t really followed Mark Reynolds career – “Larry Ginsburg (real name) began in 1974 marking film loops under Brentwood’s Starline brand although there were several Starline films he did not do. An interior designer he had never seen films until just before he decided to do his own. After “creative differences” with Brentwood, he founded the Trade!Mark Studio. He formed TCS studios as a separate company with different “standards.” Here he did one film and then used Steve Scott as director because Scott already had done good sound work on Face to Face and Reynolds had not worked with sound. Cameraman Tom Howard said the Reynolds preferred younger guys who had less experience, making the filming more difficult. He was also said to take much more time filming than others like Steve Scott.”
Curious where GEVI gets this from – I show Face To Face as a Steve Scott film (but yes, I agree Scott is great at sound); and Reynolds only doing one film for TCS? – at least half are credited to him! hmmmmmm OK, i am re-reading; he did one film, then got Steve Scott on board, not necessarily to do all the rest of the films for the studio.
The above clip I think I downloaded just to capture some images for when I sold the VHS tape –
I know I should just send you to last year’s link – Christmas Present…., and do so if you want more info, like the music, but meanwhile, enjoy another holiday clip

Holiday tradition to re-run this post – Xmas 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2013, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, and gosh from 2003!! – but c’mon, it’s DIVINE, ferchrissakes! So, I hope you all enjoy this clip I snagged a couple zillion years back from kweer.com’s FEMALE TROUBLE pages. (which appears to be long gone – too bad!)
Flesh 1995 at Gay Erotic Video Index

I sold this tape back in 2006/7; these are some notes from that eBay auction – and I’ve recently downloaded for your viewing pleasure, a (not too awful) copy of the movie. As you can tell, the description is geared towards what eBay would allow in a description (topping, not fucking) and what buyers were looking for (precondom was the big thing to highlight if it applied). Let me know if this old description holds up! I am posting this without viewing the video – I was actually hoping to get more stills from the magazine, but alas, now that eBay has dried up as a source of pics…. enjoy!
“Flesh 1995 is an exciting science fiction fantasy that blends a hot futuristic plot with plenty of hard stud action! A limited nuclear war has rendered 95% of surviving male population sterile. The ruling power has decreed all sex for pleasure forbidden – only sex for procreation is declared legal. However, a few handsome, endowed young men have been licensed to have sex for pleasure in order to appear on the government owned TV program, “Sexarama”! Flesh 1995 is their X-Rated story.”
Package 1 – July 1976
I only own 2 of the 6 issues from this short-lived magazine, published from July 1976 through it’s last issue on January of 1977. Of special note is the cover of the first issue – I’m sure you recognize Mike Davis – interesting that his “porn name” is not referred to once in the article – should I scan and post? Oh wait, it’s up – Winn Strickland.
