Sweetie, I was there and even then, I would have regarded this spread as a waste of ink that could have been better spent on naked mens.

Indeed.

I was just discovering International Male and First Hand at the Waldenbooks in the mall in 1980, and I think I would have agreed, even then.

But I'm still amazed that Roy Blakey did the photography for this lameass shoot.

Holy cow that is awful, and yes I was there, and God help me, a second run model: think Chess King: oversized acrylic sweaters, shiny shirts, skinny ties, and parachute pants. Barf!
