A wonderfully unsubtle piece of early-2000s Russian adult publishing.

Калейдоскоп ИнтиМ was a large-format Russian erotic magazine/newspaper published in Moscow. These surviving issues date mainly from 2001–2003, capturing a very particular piece of post-Soviet popular culture: celebrity gossip, relationships, provocative editorial material and adult photography wrapped together in the wonderfully chaotic tabloid design of the period.

And these things are BIG and DIRTY (graphical that is)

At approximately 39 × 31 cm, INTIM is considerably larger than an ordinary magazine. Contemporary listings confirm the roughly 390 × 310 mm format and eight-page construction. 

Each issue also contains its original large centre poster, making complete surviving copies considerably more interesting as display pieces.

Content varies between issues, with different models, celebrities, articles and photography. The material is considerably more adult-oriented and sexually explicit than a normal glamour magazine.

Condition:

Original used magazines approximately 23–25 years old.

Overall condition is good for their age, but expect normal storage and handling wear including folds, edge wear, small tears, creases and discoloration.
