SEVEN ELEVEN – March 1960 – Vintage Pin-Up Glamour Humor Magazine Strip Poker Ted Gottfried
Original March 1960 issue of SEVEN ELEVEN, a wonderfully strange combination of late-1950s/early-1960s glamour photography, satire, humor and illustrated features.
This issue has an outstanding bright lime-green, black and hot-pink cover built around a gambling/dice theme, with a model posed on a giant domino. The cover alone is a fantastic example of early-1960s newsstand design.
Inside, the magazine promises everything from Paris nightclub culture and glamour photography to comedy, satire, art and a tongue-in-cheek guide to strip poker.
Features advertised include:
Birthday Party by Ted Gottfried
How to Play Strip Poker
Satire: How to Fight De’ Bull
An Incomprehensive History of Art
A New Play: Run As Fast As You Can
Plus glamour photography, humor, cartoons and other period features throughout.
The opening page describes a visit to a Paris nightclub and introduces the issue's mixture of women, humor and irreverent entertainment.
An unusual survivor from the transitional period between the classic 1950s pin-up magazine and the more irreverent men's and counterculture publications that would emerge during the 1960s.
