Ray Spade Review
Date: December 22nd, 2006
Score: Full 4/5
Niche: Retro amateurs (1960s-Present)
Design: This is a functional, basic design that helps to emphasize the content and doesn't concern itself with bells and whistles.
Pictures: There's a little over 60 sets right now, but since the site just launched you can be sure that more are being added all the time. This is 100% exclusive content shot by Ray Spade over the years of the most beautiful retro amateurs. The quality of the photos are amazing and crystal clear. There are basic galleries and themed galleries, with around 50 photos in each set.
Movies: There are only four movies on the site right now, but they are all very high quality retro content. Each movie is hardcore and sexy, ranging from 9-13 movies. Streaming options only.
Speed: There were numerous bouts of slowness as I was browsing, and it distracted me from the nice content.
Navigation: You go through the site by way of a top menu and really basic photo galleries. There's a nice search function so you can hunt down exactly what you'd like to look at.
Originality: Ray Spade's photography has never before been released, and this high quality retro photography is to die for.
Overall Ease of Use: Finding things is pretty easy, but there's a few issues with gallery browsing that I'll talk about in a second.
Main Draws: The exclusive retro content that is the result of 50 years of Ray Spade's photography. The models are amateur, naturally beautiful, and presented in a very respectful manner.
Updates: This site is updated frequently, as his entire collection of thousands of retro amateurs is slowly put online.
Bonus Fun: You can buy prints of the photos, and there are a few articles on the site about shoots.
Annoyances: Navigating through the photo galleries can get real old real fast, as there's no way to get back to the main gallery page from inside the sets except for hitting the back button. The speed issue slowly drove me nuts as well. This site has a lot of potential and amazing content, and just needs a bit of tweaking to become a spectacular contender for a top retro porn site.
Is It Worth it? The price is right, and the content is incredibly high quality. If you love retro and vintage amateur photography, you should pay Ray Spade's site a visit.
Price: 4.99/3 day Trial, 17.99/month
