Come to think of it, how could there POSSIBLY have EVER been a magazine called "Titter?" Even today this would raise, um, eyebrows. I think you faked it...

Jim Bliss: You are probably right on the money, and it probably attracted that sort of reader as well-- because the two magazines I bought are absolutely FULL of Charles Atlas body-building pitches, ads for developing a "strong He-man voice", ads touting pills to "stop bed-wetting", "Lonely Hearts" pen pals, and a booklet on "How To Make Love and Be Loved"-- there's also numerous Viagra-like pitches...

I loved the numerous amusing ads for "Amateur Lady Wrestlers In Action!" though

Larry, this is an actual magazine, I kid you not. However, my Titter mag has a different cover (bathing beauty in a green bikini -- "America's Merriest Magazine * Bevies of Beauties * Barrels of Fun"). I don't have a scanner, so posted a picture of a random Titter cover from Ebay since I was in a hurry.

**** However, I DID just find an online version of the same exact cover I have -- posting it now!

There's got to be a story somewhere in there -- a lonely, bedwetting, womanizing body-builder.

inresponse to a person asking "how could there ever be a magazine named *Titter*" Let me explain... the magazine also stated it was *America's merriest magazine* The word titter does not just mean "BOOB, BREASTS, Titty" follow me here??? check it out.... 1. to laugh in a restrained, self-conscious, or affected way, as from nervousness or in ill-suppressed amusement.
–noun 2. a tittering laugh.



that is how, luv!~~
