Published in 1983 by Gatisle Ltd in London this vintage installment of the specialized adult series presents a focused exploration of theatrical discipline themes centered on the titular Punishment Ballet feature.

The cover captures a choreographed moment within a mirrored dance studio where three students in white leotards perform under the watchful gaze of a ballet mistress establishing the pictorial narrative that continues throughout the volume. As a sequel to earlier thematic explorations in the series this issue utilizes a photo fantasy format to tell its story through a sequence of images alongside contributing written works such as Marys First Caning by Pauline Wright and Edwardian Episode by RT Mason.

Notable for being the only issue in the publications history to include full creative team credits on the contents page it offers a rare glimpse into the production of 1980s niche media. With illustrations by Paula Meadows and various black and white and color pictorials the magazine serves as a significant artifact of British adult publishing from the early eighties reflecting a specific era of underground readership and collector interest in corporal punishment fiction and specialized photography.
