Soon after reading about all the controversy over whether a '70s album cover on Wikipedia is "child pornography", I started watching the '80s movie "The World According to Garp", which came up on my Netflix queue. The opening sequence of this movie (and the theatrical trailer also included on the DVD) depict a naked baby, whose penis is clearly visible. So I guess Warners and Netflix are peddlers of kiddie porn too.
You are thinking too hard. In various churches you can see plenty of naked child bodies (angels) in the ceilings...

Not really relevant we are not after getting complaints about Nirvana's Nevermind. Most people still accept naked baby pics as (generaly) not a problem. A more relevant approach might be to see if they stock Child Bride (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_Bride).
However we know that standards change and as Paul Reubens found out there is stuff from yester year that does cause problems today. While most of this material is lesser known than B-movies and German heavy metal album covers it is inevitable that some better known material will run into issues.
That said I don't think we have been contacted by any law enforcement agency over this matter thus the hysteria on both sides would appear to be unwarranted.

Or any titles from the early part of Brooke Shields' career. But wait... none of this material could be considered pornographic.

Everything can be considered pornographic... >:D
