TORST ("Thirst") directed by Ingmar Bergman, is supposed to tell the lives of three women strangely in love, including a lesbian. As yet none of your editors or contributors have seen the film.

TURNABOUT, the Thorne Smith s.e.x-farce where a man's ego is trans.m.u.ted into a woman's body.

t.i.tLE UNKNOWN; 1950 or 1951; French with English subt.i.tles; action took place in a girl's reformatory, much reference to lesbianism and some overt scenes; one where a girl caressed the breast of another and whispered love words to her, another where a tough street type tells a young innocent "See these marks on my thighs, they are each the marks of a lover, the left leg for boys and the right for girls." I don't see any other way to interpret that scene. (GD)

THE END, OF COURSE, IS NOT YET.

Related Publications

Information about the following publishers in the field of h.o.m.os.e.xual studies was supplied by the editors; we at the Checklist a.s.sume no responsibility for this information. We have, however, been constant readers of all three of these magazines and can recommend them as dignified, worthwhile and occasionally scholarly pioneering in a neglected field; they deserve support.

SEE ALSO FOR COLLECTORS ONLY

[Ill.u.s.tration]

collectors only

Every year, following the publication of the Checklist, we receive a number of queries. Where, they want to know, can we buy these books? We can only tell you where we buy books; and have therefore a.s.sembled the following list of reputable dealers, mail order, who handle these books and many others.

WINSTON BOOK SERVICE, 250 Fulton Avenue; Hempstead, New York.

Successor to the famous Cory Book Service which was founded by Donald Webster Cory, author of "The h.o.m.os.e.xual in America". This is perhaps the best American source for current novels in hard covers and non-fiction. They issue catalogs and lists, give a sizable discount for large orders, and will also locate hard-to-find or out-of-print books. Leslie Laird Winston, who is the presiding genius here, is one of the nicest people to deal with that we have ever known. Every month they feature some new or special book in the field, at a special price. Getting on their mailing list is the _best_ thing that can happen to a collector.

DORIAN BOOK SERVICE, 693 Mission Street, San Francisco 5, California. A subsidiary of the Mattachine Review and the Pan-Graphic Press. They publish the Dorian Book Quarterly, dealt with elsewhere, and also a fat, fascinating catalogue listing several hundred t.i.tles of current hardcover and paperback fiction.

They can also furnish, or will locate, many out-of-print t.i.tles. My experience with them: prompt service, fast s.h.i.+pment, up-to-date information on cheap reprints of rare t.i.tles.

VILLAGE BOOKS AND PRESS, 114-116 Christopher Street, New York 14, New York. This is the outfit behind the Noel Garde bibliography of h.o.m.os.e.xual Literature, mentioned in the editorial. They can still supply this biblio list for $1.50. They also issue lists at frequent intervals, and will search for hard-to-find and out-of-print t.i.tles.

Prices seem reasonable considering the scarcity of some of the paperbacks he handles. The proprietor, Howard Frisch, is one of the most co-operative dealers in the business.

ONE Magazine, listed in "Related Publications" has published one volume of short stories, and is soon to do more publis.h.i.+ng; they also list several dozen books sold by mail order.

THE LADDER, listed in "Related Publications", is soon to set up a book service; their first special release will be Jeannette Howard Foster's "s.e.x Variant Women in Literature", so keep your eyes open.

THE TENTH MUSE, bookshop managed by Julia Newman, 326 West 15th St, New York 11, New York, also does some mail order business. Write for a list.

A POINTS NORTHE, unusual bookshop at 15 Robinson Street, in Oklahoma City, managed by James Neill Northe, into which your senior editor virtually stumbled during a rainstorm, specializes in very rare, esoteric and scholarly t.i.tles, curiosa, etc. He can supply even the most fantastically rare stuff; prices are in line with the rarity of the items wanted. (It was Mr. Northe who, with disinterested kindness, supplied some biblio data on the real rarities on the list; he has our thanks and endors.e.m.e.nt.)

BOOKPOST, C. Rogers, Box 3251, San Diego 3, California. This outfit specializes in Americana, but can supply almost anything. The prices here are the most reasonable I've ever encountered; if Rogers quotes you a price, there's no point in shopping around for a lower one.

INTERNATIONAL BOOKFINDERS, P O Box 3003, Beverly Hills, California.

These people are the out-of-print bookfinders par excellence. I've ordered many books from them; their prices are reasonable, never exorbitant; their service is good, the books they supply are always of high quality. They're nice to deal with. I've never had a complaint in ten years of bookhunting.

RAYMOND TRANFIELD, Antiquarian Book Dealer, 31 Hart Street, Henley-Upon-Thames, Oxon, England, is probably the best source for older books published in England. His prices are reasonable, his service is fast (he quotes by airmail and sends his parcels insured, which is a blessing for anything which has to travel across the ocean).
