These are some remarkable erotic images from Peep Focus and Peep Document, two 1980s voyeuristic photography magazines from Japan.
The fetish images were shared by fintan (pinakotheca), who nobly finds old erotic art and photography books, scans, resells the books, and then shares highlights online. He often features Japanese publications.
He also shared scans from an incredible 1990 photo book called Binding Force: Japan’s First Facial Restraint Photo Book, which we wrote about in March.
The most famous Japanese photographer associated with voyeurism is Kohei Yoshiyuki, whose 19702 images of sexual activities (and the people watching them) in nighttime parks in Japan have become iconic.
Fintan also shared images from a similar publication, Voyeurism: You Are Being Watched Too, from 1982.
Some of these voyeurism fetish photos appear to be staged with models, but others are surely genuine tosatsu (“stole photos”) of unsuspecting members of the public illicitly taken by photographers. The 1980s were wild.
