To paraphrase Clint Eastwood, “In this world there are two kinds of people—those with loaded guns, and those who dance.” Or something like that. The guy on the cover of this issue of Adam from June 1958 better work it like he’s at the club if he hopes to survive. We can’t believe how long it’s been since we shared an issue of this magazine. It’s been since November. At this rate we’ll never get the rest uploaded. Well, today is a step in the right direction, although this issue was so brittle we couldn’t scan it extensively without risking its destruction. For other magazines we consider that a sacrifice for the greater good of digital proliferation, but not with Adam. We never let Adam get harmed. Which is more than Eve could say.
This is a different era of Adam than we usually post, one that predates the nudity and more freewheeling fictional content of the ’70s, but it’s still quite nice. Inside are plenty of models, including Italian actress Marisa Allasio, wearing the same handkerchief bikini as in these photos we shared a while back. There’s also a feature on beauty in sports, and a fun tale about looking for gold in South America. Speaking of looking for gold in foreign countries, we’ve got our hooks into the motherlode of Adam magazines. We have more than twenty on the way. That’ll up our stash to forty-plus issues, assuming they don’t vanish into the magazine vortex that seems to hover between here and Australia. Send good vibes. But no matter what, we’ll have another issue soon.
