There’s a vintage French spanking film from about a hundred years ago called La fessée à l’école that features a schoolteacher and two pupils and a horny school inspector. Early in the film there’s a scene transition that turns tender, signaled with a title card saying, roughly, “the spanking quickly turned to a caress”:
As many a good spanking does…

According to the January 1969 issue of Wild magazine, this spanking scene is from a filming-then-in-progress movie with the then-working title of Weekend Warrior, which may ultimately have been released as the nudie flick Weekend Lover:

I don’t have any context for this vintage spanking photo, but I will say that our mixed group of young adults parked up at the end of some lonely country road behind a capacious automobile probably intend some shenanigans of which the adults in their lives would not approve! Meanwhile our man with a lady over his lap for a spanking has a look in his eye that suggests every kind of deviltry is on the menu:

This vintage lesbian spanking scene is a detail from a 1920s-vintage postcard from the Biederer/Ostra studios:

The mild hand spanking that Bettie Page is giving a fetish model here seems oddly uncalibrated to the fairly high fetish level (rubber, lingerie, boots, bondage) on display in this vintage kink photo:
This one actually is from Irving Klaw.

Back in 2019 I posted this vintage image of two semi-nude lesbians double-teaming a third woman with an over-their-knees spanking on a long couch. Here’s another from the same photoset:

All of the men in this room are on their knees being ridden and/or whipped by three women. But if you look closely, there’s one woman perched up on the big wing chair, with her petticoats up and her hands tied and a fierce domme laying into her ass with double-wielded switches. If this is all about paying forfeits in party games, she must have lost big!
I honestly don’t know what’s actually going on in this drawing, nor do I have any credits for source or artist.

Remember the two women being caned simultaneously from Rapport #6? Apparently one of them also earned a substantial individual punishment with some sort of short cane or stick, that left her thoroughly marked and feeling visibly chastened:

When you have two unruly women to punish, you can save time by getting yourself a longer cane:
From Rapport #6, a Danish BDSM magazine of uncertain vintage, perhaps dating to the early 1970s.

I think the lady is overdressed for a ping pong paddle spanking, but the fancy lingerie is very nice, and the wooden pillory and ankle stocks should keep her from thrashing too much:

There’s a lot of detail in this vintage martinet whipping photo. The careful stage set by the spanking bench draped with rich patterned fabrics, the nice silk stockings with lace trim, the print-fabric dress raised to her shoulders, the taught rope bondage, the poised whip, the sturdy woman administering the punishment: everything points to an extended painful session that our punished heroine will not soon forget!

I wish I could identify the uniform of the bearded gentleman who is supervising this bondage birching punishment:
I don’t know anything whatsoever about this photograph, except that 17 years ago I published another photo from the same set which my then-source estimated to date from 1890.

I’ve discussed before the complex interaction between fraternity and sorority spanking rituals as a rich fantasy substrate, versus the facts-as-they-are that real-world hazing abides solidly on the unpleasant and unerotic spectrum between bullying and abuse. Nonetheless, and precisely because these scenarios are enjoyed as fantasy by so many in our community, I sometimes cannot resist sharing historical examples of “Greek life” spanking photography for whatever fetish fuel value it may have:
I have pondered, but I cannot decide whether the long sword is a ritual symbol of authority in this scene, or whether this is a “flat of the blade” sort of additional spanking implement.

Amongst the dubious advertisements in the back pages of the July 1937 issue of Spicy Mystery Stories, we find the following curious notice:
It reads:
HUMILIATING EXPERIENCES OF A YOUNG LADY
“Humiliations of Hattie” contains 60 very unusual pages of reading and 5 full page illustrations, offered only to adult readers at $1.00, express prepaid. Money back if not surprised and delighted. State age.
Readers, I’m sure you understand why my spanko radar went off. They don’t even directly hint that poor Hattie’s humiliating ordeals involve spanking, and yet I think that’s where all of our dirty minds immediately went.
For proof, I betook myself to the internet, and I believe we are vindicated. There’s only one internet reference I can find, and no hint at all that this rare item of literature has ever been digitized anywhere. But I’m happy to report that Humiliations of Hattie is to be bound in Box 2, Folder 5 of the Flagellation Collection in the Special Collections at California State University, Northridge. The Flagellation Collection, sadly, is not online. But if any of you are local to Cal State Northridge, they do allow students, faculty, and “researchers” to access the special collections and take digital photos. I’m just saying.

This vintage spanking art is by Herric (pseudonym for Chéri Herouard) from the 1939 erotic novel Les Confidences de Chérubin.

These vintage OTK spanking photos come from a 1966 Rosslyn News stroke book called Darlene In Discipline House:
You don’t often see two pretty girls spanking each other simultaneously:
This vintage spanking photo is from a Satellite Publishing Company mail-order publication from (probably) the 1950s named Spanking War Brides. You may be wondering, what were “war brides” and why are they spanking each other? Well, our two European lovelies here supposedly married American soldiers during World War II in order to get to the USA, but are now both divorced from those government-issue suckers. They’ve moved on to seeking their fortune (in the most old-fashioned way you can imagine) in New York City. As the story goes:

Vintage OTK spanking photos aren’t so hard to find. But one where the lady administering the over-the-knee spanking is still wearing her hat? For that you have to look around a bit:
No extra charge for the silk stockings worn by all parties.

Here’s something you don’t see every day: a sequence of vintage flagellation photographs featuring women of substantial curvature in a progressive state of undress during a spanking scene.
I do apologize for the limited size and quality of the images; I rescued them from an ephemeral auction site listing and the quality of the listing images and the originals both was quite dubious. The auction house suggested the the photos were Austrian in origin.

In case you missed it back in August, ErosBlog painstakingly reassembled 16 photos from scattered web sources that make up a vintage lesbian medical-fetish photoset in which two women take turns getting naked in a medical office and examining each other with a stethoscope. One of the photos is also a spanking picture we’ve passed around in this community many times before, without (at least on my part) realizing its broader context:

I can already tell this blonde number is going to need a lot more spanking:

You’ve seen some of these old photos individually, I suspect; I know I have. But I hadn’t seen this photo of the whole set tacked up beside each other like this before:
Various internet sources date it to the 1890s.

Richard Windsor speculates that this is a public birthday spanking, and who am I to disagree? In my mind’s eye there are about twenty people standing around laughing and joking during the festivities:

I’m no expert (no, wait, I kinda am) but these three young ladies show every sign of true repentance for their unspecified crimes, sins, or shenanigans:

These hairbrush spanking vintage photos are via Chross:
Their nice evening out didn’t go so well at first. They quarreled, and he was pushed beyond his patience. The plaza was entirely empty, so he sat her down at the base of some ancient stone pile of public art and began to remonstrate with her:
Art is by Mario Laboccetta, aka Marilac. From Mademoiselle Cinglade, 1936.

This vintage opportunistic spanking scene is from Richard Windsor’s excellent vintage spanking site. I know I sure wouldn’t be able to resist smacking that delicious wet target:

More than eleven years ago I posted a hand-tinted (or perhaps modernly colored with Photoshop) vintage photo of a smiling spanker, and asked “Does anybody have the unaltered image?”
At the time, nobody stepped up. This was in an era when Google Image Search had not been invented yet; nothing like that existed. So I was out of luck.
That was then, this is now:
It is suggested by diverse sources that this version of the photo may appear in a collection of vintage erotic photos called Jeux de Dames Cruelles, compiled by Serge Nazarieff. (I don’t have the book, so I can’t confirm.)

It’s my prediction that this well-spanked wife is presently going to find herself dumped without further ceremony onto the marriage bed. It’s even possible that she’ll be getting no supper, except perhaps for whatever she can forage there, if you know what I mean and I think you do:
Image is a detail from one of the vintage photos that I’m rescuing from archive obscurity.

Although this is via Tumblr and Kinky Delight, it appears to be one from a sequence (presumably originally a magazine set) that Richard Windsor has.

The pictures of this vintage schoolroom punishment scene were all over the vintage and spanking corners of Usenet when I first started paying attention so many years ago. Of course, in the web era, they’re all over the web. Before UseNet, they were endlessly republished in spanking magazines (for example, one of them is in Spank Hard #2 from 1984) and sometimes in more mainstream porn magazines. Micheal Masterson, the founder and proprietor of the Real Spankings family of porn sites, is on record that one of these pictures was the first spanking photo he ever saw (he was 11, and the picture was in Penthouse).
This is an example of the kind of vintage spanking pictures that I’m often tempted to repost — but sometimes, I can resist the temptation. Typically I want something more in a post than “here is a grainy little vintage spanking picture that you’ve seen a hundred times before.” What pushed me over the edge was finding the three of these in a set at Beaky’s Spanking Blog [link broken and removed], at a slightly better size and in a better-than-usual state of modern digital repair:
If anybody knows details of their early history or has some gloriously high-resolution scans from quality prints somewhere, I’d love to hear in the comments!
P.S. This post took forever to assemble because I made the mistake of typing “vintage spanking” into the Spanking Blog search box to see if I’d posted these before. 24 pages later, I was all “what was I doing again?”

This picture pops up in various little internet archives of vintage spanking pictures, but I’m always uncertain just how vintage it actually is. The look of pain on her face looks much more dynamic and less posed than one usually sees in the truly vintage photos:
It looks to me as if she’s a little bit angry but still trying to talk her way out of the impending spanking:
Via Snapped Garters.
This photo is titled “The Little Sinner” and though it’s not 100% clear that punishment for her sins is imminent, her posture and facial expression certainly do suggest that she wouldn’t be surprised:
Perhaps the caption sheds more light on her imminent fate, but I have not the necessary language skills. Anybody?
Update: Actually I had wondered if this was supposed to be a photo of a punishment in progress; there is a line upper left that could be a cane in the air, if the caner is a lefty. But then I had a memory flash, and went and rummaged my hard drive. The quality is much poorer, but in this un-reversed version, the cane is easier to see, and the postures more plausible:
Apparently it wasn’t certain, at first, just who was supposed to get the riding crop spanking:

The vintage photography here is not clear enough (at this resolution, on my tired old laptop screen) for me to tell whether this is a genuine “stinging nettles” spanking, or whether it’s just a bit of a switching and we’ve been too hasty to strip the leaves (yet) off the fresh-cut switch:
I can’t tell whether this is supposed to be a spanking, or just a bit of friendly assistance in removing a spot of dreaded lingerie lint with the lint brush:
I say this because it looks as if we are seeing a bristles-free side of the brush…
Chross would like to know who Al Siegel is spanking in this picture. He thinks he’s already ruled out Ethel Merman:
If you recognize her, let him (and us) know!
I’ve seen this vintage spanking photo before; it’s even possible I may have blogged it previously. But I’ve never seen it uncropped on that glorious vintage Elko photographic paper:

Did I say “ready”? Nay, more like eager:

I don’t know who the five big furry Cossack-looking cavalry officers are supposed to be, but they seem to have brought military precision to their girl-spanking drill:
The artist is Leon Roze, about whom I know little except that he was a French illustrator, mostly of the sort of books we would approve of if we could lay our hands on ’em.
Don’t forget to click that picture for a much larger version of the image.

If you’re a fan of the TV show My Name Is Earl, you might forgive me for thinking he’s found an interesting way of striking items off his karma list:
I believe this is what bratting looked like in 1906. On the next cabinet card (if only we had it!) she’s probably over his knee on the bench, nothing visible but her bare bottom and a mound of skirts piled up over her head and shoulders and arms:
Don’t forget to click for the bigger version.
I say “vintage”, because it looks “vintage-ish” and I found it in a Usenet folder:
But I am uncertain, truth be told. There’s something about the picture that sets off my “modern art photo with a deliberate retro look” warning. Maybe the shoes, maybe something in the filtering and lensing, maybe it’s just that it looks too much like something Ellen Von Unwerth would do.
So if you recognize the pic and have a photographer credit or a source, I’d love to have it. Of course that’s also (and always) true if it’s a vintage pic as well.
