[EROTICA]. GINZBURG, Ralph (1929-2006), editor. Eros. New York: Eros Quarterly Magazine, 1962. Complete in 4 volumes, folio. Original publisher’s boards. Rubbing to covers. Published with an eye on the great social changes reverberating through the American cultural landscape in the early 1960s, Ralph Ginzburg’s Eros might have fallen under the authorities’ radar entirely had the decision not been made to publish the last studio portraits of Marilyn Monroe in their autumn, 1962 issue. Attorney General Robert Kennedy, rumored to have been having an affair with Monroe shortly before her death, brought an obscenity lawsuit against Ginzburg over his publishing the photographs; a lawsuit which would see Ginzburg sentenced to eight months in prison and the folding of Eros.
