Arena Publishing Corp., 1973. Very Good. V7 N9, January 1973; distributed by Kable News, B/W throughout, 98pp, 5 x 7 inches, 75 cents cover price, side-stapled & perfect-bound. Vintage adult digest magazine, featuring photography of nude women, editorials on celebrities, sports, vice. Early issues boast swimsuit models, burlesque, wartime themes, but for its duration always profuse photographs & great models (some issues w/ color inserts). Russ Meyer was a major contributor. Similar to Eye, Pic, Tab, Vue, etc.; later issues (about 1960) began to feature nude photography, much eerily similar to 1950s camera clubs. More pornographic through progression.
