Paperback 222: How Rough Can It Get? / Joe Weiss (Avon T-332)

Paperback 222: Avon T-332 (1st thus, 1959)
Title: How Rough Can It Get?
Author: Joe Weiss
Cover artist: Milo

Yours for: $20


Best things about this cover:

  • She looks excited about the possibility that it will get very rough, indeed.
  • Her posture looks demure, but her hands?: holding a sledgehammer.
  • That dude's butt and jaw are all kinds of wrong.
  • Is there a difference between a trouble and a tribulation?
  • That red is horrible. Pus + blood.

Best things about this back cover:
  • Where is a picture?
  • Oh good. I love a good human frailty war.

Beverly's five minutes were up, and she latched herself onto a new guy. She was showing this guy her arm. She told him that he should know she bruised very easily. So he then made a determined effort to see if he could do a better job with the other arm and maybe break it for her.


Remember when co-ed Fight Clubs were popular? Me either.
