No. 846
Decision of the Indecent Publications Tribunal

IN the matter of the Indecent Publications Act 1963, and
in the matter of an application by Waverley Publishing
Company Limited for a decision in respect of the following
publication: The Summer Holiday Sex Manual by Miss
Tuppy Owens and published by Robin Ray of London,
England.

Date of hearing: 30 July 1975, at Wellington.

No appearance of applicant but written submissions received.
Mr P. E. Leloir and Mr K. G. Murray appeared on behalf
of the Comptroller of Customs and made submissions.

DECISION OF THE TRIBUNAL

This book constitutes a series of photographs depicting
sexual intercourse, foreplay, and oral-genitilism performed in
the open air. Its title is pretentious as the book does not
constitute a manual in the generally accepted sense of the
word.

In decisions No. 432–435, the Tribunal set out criteria for
classifying books belonging to this genre of literature. The
Summer Holiday Sex Manual clearly falls into category (c).
The photographs are contrived and the captions are designed
to titillate and excite. The material is tastelessly and insens-
itively presented and no allowance is made for “elements
in the relationship apart from the acrobatics”.

The Tribunal classifies this book as indecent.

No. 847
Decision of the Indecent Publications Tribunal

IN the matter of the Indecent Publications Act 1963, and
in the matter of an application by Waverley Publishing
Company Limited for a decision in respect of the following
publication: How to Satisfy All Women by Bernard
Sullivan and published by Bernard Sullivan of Great
Britain.

Date of hearing: 30 July 1975, at Wellington.

No appearance of applicant but written submissions received.
DECISION OF THE TRIBUNAL

This book contains a fairly extensive and informative text
on most aspects of human sexuality. It also includes more
than seventy photographs of couples demonstrating various
sexual techniques.

Taken as a whole, the text is unobjectionable. The photo-
graphs however, appear to have been chosen for their
salacious appeal. Their number is excessive and very few
are in accord with the informative nature of the text. Several
are irrelevant. Thus the photographs would appear to have
no other purpose than to boost sales.

The Tribunal regards the text as camouflage designed to
render the photographs acceptable and considers this book
to be lacking in honesty of purpose.

The Tribunal classifies this book as indecent.
LAURENCE M. GREIG, Chairman.
