Amber Lynn entered the porn world in 1983 at the age of 20 and joined friends Christy Canyon, Tracy Lords and Ginger Lynn as one of the top porn megastars in history. Nude posing quickly led to hardcore scenes and the rest is porno history. The Amber Lynn Collection offers some of Amber Lynn's most famous and erotic video scenes and a small photo collection of this gorgeous blonde bombshell. Membership comes with free bonus access to six additional vintage porn sites in the network.
To my knowledge, Amber Lynn hasn't done any more porn appearances since the early 2000, and this is not an official collection. This site is just a small archive of some of Amber's most famous video scenes and a single, more recent photo gallery. It looks like a couple of new videos were added in the weeks prior to my visit to the site, but before that it had been many months since the site had seen any growth. There may be some updates here and there, but I wouldn't count on it.
The collection here includes a single softcore bikini and nude set that looks to have been taken sometime after the year 2000 as well as a variety of videos from the 1980s which include one-on-one fucking, lesbian strap-on fun, group sex, blow jobs, and more. You'll see a horror starring alongside familiar faces such as Ginger Lynn, Nina Hartley, Peter North, and Joey Silvera.
The porn titles of these clips come from were originally released on VHS or perhaps even Betamax tapes. Unfortunately, the quality isn't any better than that offered by VHS and Betamax tapes back in the day. Things are often grainy or blurry, and the color balance is frequently incorrect. Poor lighting is also a problem. Luckily, none of these are so bad that they aren't worth watching. These flicks come at a max quality level of 640 x 480 pixels, 1500 kbps.
The bright purple and black tour pages for the Amber Lynn Collection offer a few small preview images and a single video trailer, but I definitely like my tour is a bit more informative and accurate than this one. They make no mention of the size of the collection or the lack of regular updates, and the promise of DVD quality video is just laughable.
The purple and black color scheme continues once in the members' area where you will find a plain and simple layout that's pretty easy to use. At the top of the page, you'll see a menu that will take you to the various pages the site has to offer such as Amber Lynn's biography, her photos and videos, a link to the free bonus sites and some third-party feeds, and a built-in messaging system to contact the sites staff. A keyword search tool allows members to search for any term that comes to mind and also gives them the chance to narrow their results to include only materials in a certain category or of a certain type, but I'm not sure how helpful that actually is on the site with less than 25 updates.
This is a very no-frills site. The photo set is offered for viewing in a basic thumbnail gallery or as a variable speed slideshow, or may be downloaded in a ZIP file. Videos may be downloaded in WMV format in a full-length file or clips and stream is offered in Flash format includes only. These options get the job done but having more choices is always better.
A collection of less than 25 videos and a single photo gallery would be tiny no matter what category of porn site we are talking about, and this one is no exception. The vintage nature of these materials means that it can be difficult to get the rights to use them, but that's probably not much consolation for fans hoping to see more of Amber Lynn. On the upside, membership here includes free access to six more vintage porn sites in the network, each featuring a different classic pornstar.
