Guide to the Harris-Wheeler SC.AHDW 1 Collection Contributing Institution: Special Collections & Archives Title: Harris-Wheeler Collection Creator: Harris, Alvin S. and Richard "Dick" Oliver Wheeler Identifier/Call Number: SC.AHDW Extent: 15.88 linear feet Date (inclusive): 1870-2000 Date (bulk): 1950-1979 Abstract: The Harris-Wheeler Collection documents the efforts of Alvin S. Harris, an amateur erotic photographer, and Richard "Dick" Oliver Wheeler, an enthusiast, to collect, share, and sell cross-dressing and sexual fetish materials, including literature, photographs, periodicals, catalogs, and other types of sexually explicit content. Notable figures represented in the collection include Irving Claw, John Willie, Louise Lawrence, and Christine Jorgensen. The bulk of the collection was created between 1950 and 1979. Language of Material: English,German,French Biographical Information: Alvin S. Harris was an amateur erotic photographer, who lived in the San Francisco Bay area. He specialized in "bizarre photography" and collected materials on cross-dressing, lingerie, fetishes, and erotic literature. Beginning in the 1930s, he photographed much of this material and sold it. Harris corresponded with many men and women active in cross-dressing and trans culture and was a close friend to Louise Lawrence, well known trans community organizer. When Harris married in the 1950s, his wife asked that he dispose of the collection, and so he gifted it to his friend, Richard "Dick" Oliver Wheeler. Dick Wheeler was born on July 16, 1916 in Montréal, Quebec, Canada to parents Richard Howes and Rena Stacy (neé Oliver) Wheeler, who were American citizens living permanently in New York State. Following high school, Wheeler trained as a mechanical engineer at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York, and graduated in 1936. He later became a development engineer with the Carborundum Company. His interest in model trains led him to create two railroad displays for the 1939 New York World's Fair, "Railroads at Work" and "Building a Railroad." He married Hannah Frances Blattman in 1943 and in 1945 the couple founded Model Engineering Works, a manufacturer of model trains and kits. The company and its owners moved to Monrovia, California in 1949. Wheeler was also a collector of erotic literature and photographs. He donated a portion of his collection in 1998 and the remainder in 2004. Dick Wheeler passed away in 2009. Scope and Contents The Harris-Wheeler Collection documents the efforts of Alvin S. Harris and Richard Wheeler to collect, share, and sell cross-dressing and sexual fetish materials, including literature, photographs, periodicals, catalogs, and other types of materials.

  • Achter De Schermen Achter Een Verkennend Onderzoek Naar Downloaders Van Kinderporno
    In dit verkennende onderzoek wordt getracht enig licht te werpen op het fenomeen Achter deschermen downloaden van kinderporno en met name op de persoon van downloaders. Wat is in de literatuur en bij opsporings- en hulpverleningsinstanties bekend over de achtergronden - geslacht, leeftijd, etniciteit - en motieven van downloaders? Gaat het uitsluitend om het downloaden en verzamelen van afbeeldingen of speelt Achter de schermen een seksuele voorkeur voor kinderen ook mee? Hoe functioneert de markt van vraag en aanbod wat betreft kinderporno op het internet en welke rol spelen Anton vanWijk,AnnemiekNieuwenhuisenAngeline Smeltink Een verkennend onderzoek naar downloaders van kinderporno downloaders: zijn zij enkel afnemers of ook producenten van kinderporno? Ook de manieren waarop downloaders opereren en proberen uit handen te blijven van de politie passeren de revue. Verder wordt beschreven wat bekend is over de omvang van het kinderporno- grafi sch beeldmateriaal dat op het internet te vinden is. Wat is de leeftijd van de afgebeelde kinderen en om welke seksuele poses gaat het? Uit het onder- zoek blijkt dat er verschillende profi elen van downloaders zijn te onderscheiden. Die profi elen behoeven door middel van vervolgonderzoek nog nadere inkleuring en toetsing. Voor de opsporing is het van groot belang om meer zicht te krijgen op de besloten netwerken op internet waar vaak grove vormen van kinderporno worden verhandeld en uitgewisseld.

  • Sanitizing the Seventies Pornography, Home Video, and the Editing of Sexual Memory
    WHITNEY STRUB Sanitizing the Seventies Pornography, Home Video, and the Editing of Sexual Memory ABSTRACT During the 1980s US feminist sex wars, pornography edited its own history, leav- ing a distorted record both less problematic and less queer than scholars have yet recognized. Academic inquiry into pornography coincided with home-video boom years, and research often took place in adult backrooms, necessarily because pornography was so poorly archived. Yet even as access has shifted from VHS to digital, the field has yet to reckon with how its interpre- tive frameworks were shaped by a material history in which the films that scholars watched were often altered from the versions patrons had seen in theaters. Gone from both straight and gay films were many transgressive sex acts that had frequently been staples of the genre, affecting the perceived oeuvre of nearly every hardcore filmmaker of the era. This article recov- ers the lost history of sexual media editing, arguing for a more carefully historicized interro- gation of the commercial sources of our porn archives. KEYWORDS censorship, home video, new video studies, pornography, sex wars At the height of the s feminist sex wars, pornography edited its own history. Few noticed and no official archives recorded or preserved this change, but the interpretive stakes were, and remain, high. Scenes disappeared, and with them the social meanings of texts, resulting in a disconnect between embodied histori- cal experiences and the later textual interpretations of those works. The pornog- raphy industry sanitized its s iterations, leaving a distorted record that narrowed the scope of its erotic imaginary in ways that left it both less misogy- nistic and less expansive, a triumph of the banal and the genital that necessitates intervention, since the “porno chic” that scholars have inherited is in large part an industrial memory production of the sands, as pornography’shis- tory was quietly disciplined and revised over the course of its various platform adaptations.

  • 2.4-Ross:Layout 1 3/9/07 15:45 Page 85
    2.4-Ross:Layout 1 3/9/07 15:45 Page 85 Extreme design Extreme lingerie design: from 85 ‘Bizarre’ fantasy to High Street Frances Ross Abstract John Alexander Scott Coutts alias ‘John Willie’ was the British artist, photographer and publisher of the soft-porn cult magazine ‘Bizarre’. The illustrations and photographic images he created were of heavily fetishised bondage models wearing revealing lingerie, considered racy and extreme for the period of 1946-1961. He was also the director of a mail-order-company that sold Bizarre-style intimate apparel and accessories unavailable to the general public through other retail distribution channels during this time. (Bizarre, 1995 (ed.) Kroll) Images of women in extreme lingerie have now become embedded into British popular culture through artists such as John Willie and Alan Jones. This enabled these fantasy designs to become more accessible to society and from 1970 sold through the high street erotic lingerie stores of Ann Summers. These illustrations of fetishised models have also become inspiration for famous fashion designers including Vivian Westwood and John Paul Gaultier pointed bra and corset dresses worn as fun outerwear. This has been instrumental in shifting the consumption of lingerie from a functional purchase to an emotional ‘little treat.’ (Hart & Dewsnap, 2000; Laaksonen, 1994; Laurent and Kapferet, 1985; Ross & Ranchhod, 2006) This paper explores the social/cultural paradigm shift in the production and consumption of erotic lingerie using discourse analysis of the 1995 republished Bizarre magazines. A case-study methodological approach will map out how these iconic images have been re-appropriated by lingerie up-scale specialist Agent Provocateur and Ann Summers retail high street stores.

  • Romanticizing Colonialism: Power and Pleasure in Jane Campion's the Piano
    Romanticizing Colonialism: Power and Pleasure in Jane Campion's The Piano Reshela DuPuis When writer-director Jane Campion's film sensation, The Piano, won the I993 Palme d'Or at Cannes, she became the first woman director ever to have won that award for a full-length film. In a movie world sadly bereft of internationally acclaimed female directors, Campion's work has deservedly attracted a committed following of film critics and moviegoers alike. As a major production written and directed by her, and with one of the strongest female protagonists seen in years, The Piano occasioned intense excitement among critics and drew sizable audiences across the country when released in the United States. 1 The Piano is a remarkable movie-haunting, beautifully photographed, and, as the jacket of the published screenplay noted, "utterly compelling ... a tale of visionary eroticism filled with imagery you'll never forget" (Campion 1993). Cam­ pion elicited extraordinary performances from her actors. Holly Hunter deservedly won Best Actress at the 1994 Academy Awards for her por­ trayal of Ada McGrath Stewart, a mute nineteenth-century Scotswoman sent to New Zealand to marry a man she's never met. Anna Paquin, as Ada's young daughter, Flora, was the surprise winner of the Academy's Best Supporting Actress Award. Playing against New Zealand's spectacu­ lar forests and shoreline, the film's principal male actors also rendered uncommonly strong performances-Sam Neill as Ada's possessive hus­ band, Alisdair Stewart, and Harvey Keitel as the crude but passionate colonist with whom Ada becomes sexually involved, George Baines.

  • Hard-Core Harm: Why You Can't Be Soft on Porn
    HARD-CORE HARM: WHY YOU CAN’T BE SOFT ON PORN By Jan LaRue, Chief Counsel Concerned Women for America America has become a nation of pay-per-view peeping toms. Voyeurism is an immensely profitable commodity as people spend millions watching other people have sex. And filthy rich pornographers dupe the public with the myth that pornography is harmless and the sex industry is good for the economy. What they don’t want you to know about is the loss column—pornography contributes to anti- social behavior and crime, especially sex crimes; it contaminates public health, destroys marriages and families, defiles religious communities, hinders education and depletes educational resources, increases abortions and taxes, weakens the economy. In neighborhoods afflicted with sex businesses, it destroys the value of houses and drives out legitimate businesses. Although you may never look at pornography, it is hurting you and those you love in ways you may never have considered. “Even supposing that each of us can, if he wishes, effectively avert the eye and stop the ear (which, in truth, we cannot), what is commonly read and seen and heard and done intrudes upon us all, want it or not.”1 As Diane told her story at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., in 1992, I stood next to her watching tears fill the eyes of veteran reporters: I’ve always felt that pornography was bad, that it was harmful. But I felt that it didn’t affect me personally. No members of my family ever read pornography. My husband’s family didn’t read pornography.
