Bob, Ted and Goliath

[John Sssss]

Honcho, April 1979

When the Gay Bob doll first appeared on the market some time ago, he created a considerable stir, garnering mention in all sorts of publications including-of all things-Time magazine. The purchaser was left up to his own devices as exactly how to play with this rather unusual toy, with the exception of an information sheet explaining that Gay Bob was equipped to play with himself. Our editors were intrigued by Gay Bob's possibilities, so we commissioned photographer Don Hanover to take this boy toy and let his imagination run wild (or amuck) in creating an exclusive Honcho pictorial. What occurred in the process was that Gay Bob acquired a couple of new playmates: His brunette, moustached companion with the hairy chest is called Ted and the big guy is named, appropriately, Goliath.

Now we all know what happened when Jack climbed the beanstalk and Gulliver underwent bondage with the Lilliputians, but what transpired when Goliath encountered Gay Bob and pal? Did he get stoned like he did when he met David? Was he a pushover? Did he fall on his ass?
