Really Vintage Porn

Sotheby's announced this weekend that one of the oldest existing examples of written pornography in the English language will be sold at auction next month, a play by John Wilmot, the 2nd Earl of Rochester "reputed to be a series of copulation, buggery, masturbation, fellatio and bestiality enactments" printed around 1720. Rumors that Jenna Jameson was bidding for movie rights were unconfirmed at press time.
