68pp., including covers, sexually explicit magazine and illustrated with b/w, duotone and color photos. ANKH: The Journal of the Senses, "a scientific, educational, and sociological publication of the Sex Education Series, dedicated to the wide dissemination of sexual knowledge for the modern inquiring adult," was later published by Centurion Press of Los Angeles; a timeline of issue and volume numbers shows a correspondence.
