Holloway House used HH numbers only in the 1960's. This book initiated Holloway House into the urban black market. At the time (1966) the company had been publishing a variety of subjects most of which were a kind of high class sleaze. This book which purports to be the work of a black call girl, was published almost by chance and sales skyrocketed. From this start, Holloway House began to publish such writers as Iceberg Slim, Donald Goines, Robert deCoy, Joseph Nazel and many other black writers. This is an important book in the story of the urban black book market. ; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 223 pages.
