Miniature stapled booklet featuring erotic parody of Hairbreadth Harry. Wraparound / one-piece tan cover.

Of the two back pages--apparently by the same artist as the title story--one shows a position with a paragraph of straightforward text (possibly from the Kama Sutra or the like), illustrated in a lively, happy Tijuana Bible style. / Some corrosion to staple.
