On the rack 15 years ago
What did SCORE readers buy 15 years ago this month? The July 1995 SCORE featured Angelique as the sole covergirl. The U.S. cover price was $5.95, $6.95 in Canada. It wasn’t sealed in a plastic bag with a free DVD inside like it is today. Back then, the art director and editor created back covers that looked like a front cover. For this issue, the back cover girl was Jay Sweet from Belfast, Northern Ireland. (Jay later changed her name to Angelica Foxxx and then Sam Bond. She’s still modeling in England.)
Why a back cover that was designed like the front? Because studies showed that at busy newsstands, many browsers would pick up a magazine, look through it, then put it back on the rack backwards. So with this technique, the SCORE title was always visible. Annoyed store clerks liked it, too.
The pictorials featured Tiffany Towers and Tawny Peaks in a girl-girl, Bonnie Banks, Angelique and Jay plus a Lilli Xene layout and interview. I’ve heard that Lilli Xene (pronounced “Zen-A”) became a housedancer in a California club, but I don’t know if she’s still dancing. “Nice Ass” was a six-page photo article of bootyfull SCORE Girl butts. Dipping into the Internet explosion, “Fantastic Fantasies” by Ricky Java kicked off. One of the first Netizens of the Boob Brotherhood and a Boob Cruise passenger, Rick morphed photographs to give SCORE models impossible dimensions. For this first installment, he performed massive cyber-boob jobs on Minka, Angelique, Traci Topps and Lisa Chest. Rick just emailed the other day to touch base, and he is as breastnotized as ever.
What else did you get in July ’95? A lotta stuff. A chesty short story called “Old Tricks” by Bo Alexander with sensational art by the Baron of Bazongas, Otis Sweat. “Fantasy SCORE” by Duncan Gutteridge. “Bomber Girls” by Otis. “Homebodies,” the amateur section with pictures girls sent in with the hopes of being called to model. My column, “Boob Beat,” with pix of Angelique, Chessie Moore, Lilli Xene and Letha Weapons causing trouble at the Consumer Electronics Show. An army of photographers was all over Angelique at the convention, and she played it up for them. She didn’t need to speak English, just squeeze her tits. And in “Scorecard,” our readers’ forum, the guys wrote letters about Busty Dusty, Tiffany Towers, Tawny Peaks, Honey Hills and Winona Lind. Real letters made out of paper, too. Stamped and delivered in a bag by a human. Few people had email in 1995.
Today, a copy of the July 1995 SCORE in good condition lists at $20.95 by back-issue magazine dealers.
And that’s how it was 15 years ago.

Elliot,
Thanks for the kind words. I have many warm memories of working with you and John and the other great people at Score in 1995. Meeting you all on the Boob Cruise was the icing on the cake. Good times.

Viggo: Not with the rate of inflation over the past 15 years. Jose: I learned my lesson with comic books (threw out Spider Man #1). If you can keep old magazines, keep ’em.
Wow, I have both issues.

Does the “WIN!£10.000 worth of free phone sex!” still stand ? 😀
