Decision of the Indecent Publications Tribunal

———

No. 142

IN the matter of the Indecent Publications Act 1963 and in the matter of an application by the Comptroller of Customs for a decision in respect of the book Bawdy Songs and Backroom Ballads, by Oscar Brand. Arranged for piano, guitar, and voice by Robert M. Abramson. A “Flagship Books” edition; published by Caravelle Books Incorporated by arrangement with the Dorchester Press, New York. New Zealand price, 65c.

DECISION OF THE TRIBUNAL

THE cover of this paperback book describes its contents as “forty-two of America’s livliest [sic.] folk-songs, ribald and rowdy”. Certainly they belong to a strong tradition of popular balladry marked at times by a coarseness far in excess of anything in the present collection. For although some of the songs here presented are unaffectedly crude, all are widely known, communally sung, and, given an appropriate social context, within the bounds of decency. The book is printed on cheap paper in minuscule type, with elementary musical settings and simple line drawings; it is inexpensive and its sale may be wide. The contents of the book, however, are not such as to justify any restriction and we accordingly decide that the book is not indecent.

L. G. H. SINCLAIR, Chairman.
