There goes an era ...

Porn lord Jim Mitchell dies at 63

You can Google all the particulars.

Jim and Artie were the godfathers of San Francisco smut.

Two friends from SJPL worked in San Francisco for a while back in the early seventies. The F half was the girl working the box office. She took your $ to get into the theater. The M half had experience working with the AV and film at San Jose Public: he cleaned the films after playing.

We always used to say that Richard cleaned dirty films for the Mitchell Brothers.

Ah, those were the days.
