Steamy Abercrombie Mag Lands in UK

BETTY COCKER From the vault
Fans of homoerotic black and white snaps of college boys in their underwear were devastated when Abercrombie & Fitch's magazine, A & F Quarterly, folded in 2003. So much so that vintage copies of the racy style rag now command $95 at esteemed used bookstores—where it's logged under "Gay Studies"—and even more on E-bay. Now, thanks to those pervy Brits, photographer Bruce Weber might just be back in the soft-core porn business: A & F is being reborn in the UK, where sensibilities are a tad less puritanical and the thirst for scantily clad teen models in jeeps (alternate NSFW samplings after the jump) remains unfettered. God save the Queen!

While it published in the U.S., A & F featured an interview with porn star Jenna Jameson and recipes for cocktails, and family values groups quickly pounced on the clothing company for promoting the wrong kind of messages to their predominantly teen demographic. If you're unwilling to spring for a flight to Britain to get your fix, you can get all dreamy with nostalgia (and see a lot of bare asses) here. The '90s were fun!
