Straight "Golden Age" Porn Star Herschel Savage Dead at 71

Post a REAL LINK to a news source, please.

There is nothing on the internet about this. Hoax.

It was just reported by his friend, actor David Bertolino.

I thought he was especially hot in his short-lived mustache era in 1985.

Hot as a silver fox, too.

And all of those wonderful things OP said! He HATED Trump!

He was hot. I sometimes watch clips of his when feeling the need to ... reminisce.

OP- You were watching pornographic 🎥’s

when you were 12? ! 😮

Now, that was one hot Jew.

R7 I think I was 17 when I saw Debbie Does Dallas.

Takeaway: there was a "golden age" of porn? Was it before or after:

23.05.23.Sasha.7on1.BBC.Love.Monster.of.TAP.All.Anal.Big.Gapes.Pee.Drink.Squirt.Cum.In.Ass.Mouth.Swallow. ?

Sounds like it was sudden.

My guess is a heart attack.

R10 Yes, there was. From the 1970s to mid 1980s, there was a time when porn had stories, scripts, actors, budgets. It's been dubbed the "golden age." A good source of information from that era, as well as interviews with stars from that era, including Herschel Savage, can be found on The Rialto Report website. It's actually very interesting.

The HBO series "The Deuce" was all about this golden age.

Thank you for this information. Note: I was being deliberately obtuse for snarky comic effect but see I failed.

This makes me sad. Herschel Savage was among that small group of hot porn stars from that era who could also really act, like John Leslie, Richard Pacheco, Eric Edwards, and Jerry Butler.

I remember he was on an episode of the '90s sitcom "Just Shoot Me." I remember seeing him and going, "Oh, my God! That's that porn star!"

Still nothing online other than his friend's post.

He was in this trailer for a documentary last year.

R16 Porn star deaths rarely make it to mainstream media outlets. I expect we'll be seeing news of his death pop up soon on adult film-related websites.

Real name Harvey Cohen. I always thought he looked Italian, though.

He didn't have an Italian sized dong.

He studied with Uta Hagen and Stella Adler. They must have been so proud.

Wiki

R14 Out of all of them, I believe Richard Pacheco and Eric Edwards are the only ones still living.

I blew lots of loads watching Eric Edwards.

Oh mama let's face it- he was the slut of all time!

His Wikipedia page has been updated to reflect his death:

Very handsome as a young man.

From Eric Edwards' Facebook page. I hope Eric isn't ill. His post seems to allude that he won't be around much longer, either.

He liked his salad tossed (NSFW)

He had a lot of names.

Over the course of his decades-long career, Savage worked under a plethora of pseudonyms, including Dick Bogart, William Lux, Harvey Wilden, Harvey Hanson, Bill Barry, Bill Berry, Billy Bell, Cornell Hayes, Dan Hues, Gerald Graystone, Greg Falcon, H. Savage, Harvey Cowan, Harvey Kane, Harvy Cowen, Hubert Savage, Jack Baron, Jack Black, Jack Blake, Jack Sin, Jack Soft, Joel Black, Joel Caine, Joel Kane, Little Soft, Norman Vain, Paul Hues, Skip Brooks, Van Ayasit, Vic Falcone and William Berry.

He was hot until he started shaving his pubes off. See image in r28.

Was there ever a gay porn flick "Denny Does Dallas"?

[quote]You cunts who watch straight porn and claim to be "gay", are fucked up.

I know your being bitching but back in those days, straight porn was usually all gays had to see guys fucking. Most neighborhood video stores did not offer gay porn and if some did it would be a couple of titles. You take what you can get.

AVN is reporting it now.

RIP but I always fast forwarded his scenes. He didn't do it for me. Like many of the golden age of porn male actors, the dick was simply not big enough. Peter North was definitely my fave.
