For their time they were both explicit & shocking, but the modern day World with it's instant access to far more graphic & direct pictures via the internet seems to have dulled the senses & made what was once considered not suitable for broadcast into an everyday & "acceptable" medium. As Cashy said, the World has changed but not necessarily all of it is for the better.
In 1972 seeing breasts in the papers was seen as shocking.

Today we see 'em everywhere.

Nowadays some tits even get elected to parliament.

Allegedly.
