Donald H. Gilmore, Ph. D
   
CHECK OUT THIS BOOK!
Don Gilmore


The presence of Donald H. Gilmore looms large in the history of Greenleaf publishing and in adult publishing in general.  Briefly, he was both an author, editor and the overseer of a fascinating writer's colony of eroticians enjoying the sun and sensibilities of Guadalajara, Mexico in the late 1960s.

Earl Kemp describes his time spent South of the Border, often intertwined with Don Gilmore in his ongoing EZINE #12.  In brief, Gilmore appeared in Guadalajara, Mexico around 1966 where he began recruiting would-be pornographers from the pool of rebellious and spirited expatriates who had recently taken up residence in the area.  Living in palatial splendor, Gilmore was in his element coaching, editing and marketing the efforts of the various English-speaking ex-pats primarily to Earl Kemp in his capacity as Editor-in-Chief of Greenleaf books (who himself had moved into his own lush retreat in nearby Ajijic).  Gilmore's Porno Factory as it came to be known produced a steady stream of erotica from 1966 through 1972 from such writers as Vivien Kern (writing as "Vivian Blaine"), Peggy Winter, Linda DuBrieul among many others, including relatives and acquaintances of the above.   Gilmore himself wrote a number of Greenleaf books, both fiction as well as non-fiction.  Gilmore evacuated his Mexican palace mysteriously one weekend in late 1972 and little is known of his subsequent endeavours or present whearabouts.
Additional recommended reading would be found in Earl Kemp's EL #2, a very nice autobiographical essay on knowing Donald H. Gilmore.


New titles will be added as they become available.

How to order

This is a self-made website by little old me, and while it might be big, it is not sophisticated.  The little buy icon icon takes you to a generic order form where you can type in the author, title, price, and indicate whether you would like to send me a check, money order or credit card payment.  I will confirm availability via e-mail, and once I've received payment, I'll ship the book.  It's that easy.  If you have questions,  please don't hesitate to ask  via email.

Condition Grades

There's a standard bookseller vocabulary, with terms like Fine, Very Good, Good and Poor to assess condition (to see these terms defined, click on the link above).  Most of my books are in Very Good or better condition, and I tend to overemphasize their flaws so that any surprise is a pleasant one.  Feel free to ask questions, and if the book isn't in the condition described, you may return it for a full refund. 

Wants Lists

If I don't have the book you seek in stock, I will retain your book search in my wants files and email you when I do have a copy for sale. If you don't hear back from me immediately, that probably means I don't have a copy right now.  But fear not,  I keep extensive files and never stop looking....  so send me your request;  you've got nothing to lose!
