Hustler magazine has always been known for subtlety and intellectual rigor, but there are times when even when a stuffy porn mag wants to let its hair down a little. That’s how you end up with a paper spinoff like “Hustler Humor,” which is sort of the like Playboy Jokes page turned up to 11 in color. Sadly, we don’t have copies of the actual magazine, but if this gallery of historical covers is any indication, it retained the dry wit and tasteful sensibility of the parent magazine–with a steady diet of vibrator jokes, angry middle fingers, and overt racism. Fun for the whole family!
We don’t believe that this magazine is published anymore–which is too bad, because fart jokes that involve actual farts and Ronald Reagan zingers never really get old. Plus, we haven’t seen a good “flasher” joke since our Mad magazine subscription ran out years ago.
