We all know that, prior to the Internet, escort agencies used to advertise in the Classified Ads section of newspapers. Personally I am too young to know much about this era.

I am curious to hear about the client experience back in those days! Were there pictures in the ads (I think not). How were the bookers? How good were they at providing descriptions of the "girls" (adults)? (Une belle grande blonde avec des beaux seins naturels. Ouverte d'esprit. Je suis sûr que tu vas l'aimer) (??) Were there frequent disappointments or maybe pleasant surprises? Were there independant escorts advertizing in newspapers? How were logistics, if we go back to when there were no or few cellphones?

Share your stories!

P.S: When I have time, I will look into online newspaper archives (PDF) and try to find old ads to enhance this thread.

Once upon a time....

It was at the end of summer 1998, beginning of fall 1998, i just had a thing to go to Strip Clubs. Then a childhood friend join me in my quest to tour strip clubs.

Then came january/february 1999, after another evening being teased at Super Sexe. We decided to book escorts at his apartment. We consulted Le Journal de Montréal, so there was no pictures. He was the one who called to have two ladies go to his place. At the time, it only costs 200$ for 2 ladies. A sweet deal lol.

Anyways, they were not the youngest. I was so horny i didn't care lol. I remember being nervous too.

One lady went to the living room with my friend. The other joined me in my friend's bedroom. I remember having a good session overall.

I think, two weeks later, we repeated with a different agency. It cost around the same amount.

So yeah, early 1999 was the time i got to book escorts for the first time using "Le journal de Montréal".

Somewhere
It was under ‘Services Personnels’ or ‘Autres’ , you had to read between the lines, no pictures, you picked up the phone and made a man of yourself by calling.
The odds of getting something good back then was higher than getting something good on LL or EI today
