H-day
On this day 50 years ago Sweden switched from driving on the left-hand side of the road to the right. The 3rd of September 1967 was named Dagen H (the H-day, with H standing for Höger (Right).
Apparently the transition went well, in parts due to a massive information campaign. You can probably spot the H-logo in the magazine cover above. Below you'll find other H-day related items.

Lektyr Magazine Cover
Lektyr has been around since the 20s and in the 50s it was mainly a magazine containing adventure stories targeted at men. "How I managed to survive the wrath of the headhunter tribe". In the 60s, just like a number of other magazines Lektyr turn to pornography in order to survive. As far as I know - I haven't seen it in a long time (Scout's honor!) - it's now a hardcore porn magazine with a few articles on cars added to justify the readers interest in the magazine.
When googling Lektyr the image as well as the Flickr reference for this image seems to rank pretty high. Thus, my conclusion is that people searching for racy covers of Lektyr keeps coming across this not so sexy image. How disappointing it must be. No wonder it has no fans. Sorry.
Now I only wonder how many disappointed readers this post will have. I apologize in advance.
