Title: Vintage cat fight magazines
Post by: jondo53 on June 16, 2017, 03:38:33 AM
In the days before the internet cat fight magazines flourished, and great fun they were! We learnt of producers in different countries, as in myself, in the UK, seeing pictures of the girls of Golden Girls and Camp Amazon. I've been in love with Karen Arnold ever since! And I thought a thread of pictures from these mags would be a good idea, I've still a small collection to submit pictures from. I'll begin with three from Wildcats, a British magaizine that began on soft paper then upgraded to a glossy publication. Two photos are from the early, soft paper version.

I wish I had kept my small collection of Catspats magazines, put out by Crystal Films.  I can remember having to get these magazines at the local adult book store.  That was the problem....if you lived in an area (of the US anyway) where there were no adult book stores, you were out of luck.

Remember the magazines Nugget, and Cavalier?  They were really good for catfight stories, and even some photo spreads.  And didn't one of the more mainstream men's magazines, Penthouse perhaps, have a photo story of two women who came to a party, both wearing the same dress, and they fought it out at the party?  I just can't remember now, but at the time, it was pretty good.

Thanks for the pictures, these are great. I remember Amazons in Action and Wildcats from pre internet. Also liked Fighting Gals Monthly and Claws. They had some nice stories in them.

I have a big stack of catfight mags from the 70s and 80s I want to sell but I am having issues with getting pics of the mag to post on here. As soon as I figure it out I will post what I have for sale.

There was a question above about Penthouse.  Around 2004, Penthouse had an article about New York City amateur female fight clubs.  What was interesting was that the women were offered headgear and gloves, but almost always declined and elected to fight bare fisted.

Couple of years ago UK paper the Daily Mail reported on a female fight club, and those ladies fought bare fisted.

Two more, from AiA, when I think it was still called Aggressive Women, lost the cover, so can't be sure. One is a page devoted to the art of Saja, who most here will know of, the other to Toreb, whose less well known.
If any others want to submit pictures, please do. But can you submit only images from vintage cat fight magazines? Be nice to keep the thread exclusively for that. And I've got enough mags to be submitting pics for quite some time.

Love the pictures , thanks for sharing . I have fond memories of an adult book store . At first there were magazines , then vhs , then dvd's . Actually ; there was a time when xxx was available in a theater . Sometimes it is hard to believe it has been over 45 years since i saw my first xxx at a " drive in " ( outdoor theater ) . First time seeing a girl - girl scene . Have LOVED girl / girl ever sense . Now ; there are all girl / girl movies , something that was not always so . Today , it would seem that you are able to enjoy most of your adult pleasures via your computer / internet . Who knew .

All true.  But, there's something else that's becoming old enough to be nostalgic about.  Remember, around 2008/2009 or so, seeing your first cellphone-filmed real fight on YouTube?  The 30-40 seconds of craziness, usually fought to an inconclusive draw, followed by both girls fixing their hair then seeking a face-saving way to walk away?  Then searching on YouTube for the same thing, but with 2 prettier girls?  Then finding pirated catfight videos, back when YouTube was really slow about removing that stuff?  Amazing time, in retrospect.  How much longer till YouTube doesn't allow real fights?

Southerncatfight....that sounds right.  It was so many years ago, but that was the first mainstream magazine (if you can call Swank a mainstream magazine!) I ever saw that featured a catfight.  It was the same time frame as Nugget and Cavalier were publishing letters about catfights.

2 more from FGM. One is drawn by Masade, an artist who, as far as I know, was only published by Swish mags.
Title: Re: Vintage cat fight magazines

From an early edition of Wildcats, when it was printed on plain paper.

Post by: jondo53 on July 17, 2017, 01:08:47 AM
Two from the very first issue of FGM. One's by Adam's (his names on it) who did a lot of work for Swish. I didn't rate him, but others may disagree.

 These pics are from a California Supreme video with Uschi boxing against BJ...

 Uschi and BJ wrestled each other for CS maybe only a few times besides this boxing match,but they both did other wrestling and boxing matches with CS ,BJ only wrestled against other girls,but Uschi wrestled and boxed against both female and male opponents at CS...

 BJ usually played the jobber role losing usually but Uschi seemed like she knew how to handle herself in an IRL fight ...

spoke to Candy Samples once by phone, she didn't like the fights she did but she said Uschi LOVED her fights,and enjoyed doing them.  May have been more out there than just CS/Bellstone

I know this thread was started some years ago, but wanted to let those that have contributed know that I have a large collection of old Amazons in Action magazines, all in very good condition, which I am looking to sell. Anyone interested please PM me for details.
