I remember when this Movie hit Harvey, Illinois, in 1946. I have worked a "Blowoff," but never heard of "pickles and beaver." ______________________________________ Kroger Babb’s Roadshow How a long-running movie walked the thin line between exploitation and education. Joe Bob Briggs REASON "ONCE IN A LIFETIME Comes A Presentation That TRULY PULLS NO PUNCHES! Now YOU Can SEE The Motion Picture That DARES DISCUSS and EXPLAIN SEX AS NEVER BEFORE SEEN and HEARD! THE ONE, THE ONLY, THE ORIGINAL...MOM AND DAD...Truly The World’s Most Amazing Attraction! NO ONE UNDER HIGH SCHOOL AGE Admitted Unless Accompanied By Parents!! EVERYTHING SHOWN! EVERYTHING EXPLAINED!" If you lived in a small town in the 1940s or ’50s, it was virtually impossible not to know about a film called Mom and Dad. Sooner or later a flamboyant publicity man would drive into town, the ads would appear, and the tempestuous debate would begin. Plastered on every available storefront, barn, bus bench, and shoeshine stand was a poster seducing you with an attractive couple in mid-kiss and black bold-faced ballyhoo exploding all around them. And in a black box in the lower left-hand corner: "Extra! IN PERSON: ELLIOT FORBES, ‘THE SECRETS OF SENSIBLE SEX.’" reason.com
