EDITORIAL NOTE
Welcome to the Second Year of HUSTLER.
What prompted HUSTLER to open up its sexy centerfold girls? Why does HUSTLER stir
up controversy among liberals and conservatives alike with broadminded, "borderline"
nude studies? How have we reached the point of offering the only real alternative
to buyers of men's magazines? Our exclusive Anniversary "Interview"
with Publisher and Editor Larry C. Flynt, will give you answers to these and more
readers' questions.
Appropriately, we've featured Althea Leasure, our Assistant Publisher and Vice-President
of Mini Clubs, in our First LIFE-SIZED Centerfold. Kind of validates our entire
approach to publishing HUSTLER. But don't spend all your time there. "Adolescent
Fantasy" is back, this time in the "Farmer's Daughter." Our first
annual "HONEYS In Review" gives you thirteen beautiful women you don't
want to forget. The celebration also includes Therese, "Grass Don't Grow
on a Racetrack," and "Heavenly" Celeste.
The first time you got laid can mean a variety of things and often brings back
mixed memories. For some people it was a little more difficult than others, and
'coming close' could have meant not coming at all. NORMAN THADDEUS VANE, Hollywood
script-writer and film producer, gives us his impression of that foreboding first
fuck in this month's humorous sex-fiction. To his credit, Vane was the first editor
of Penthouse — while it was still in London — and claims to have fucked
every one of the darling English "innocents" who appeared there that
year. He is now working-to-completion a film version of "Ram," through
his own company, Belgravia Productions.
As if there aren't enough economic problems plaguing the world today, there was
one Hustler a couple of years ago (before Vesco made it free and clear to Costa
Rica) who made the "big play" pay off. That was Bernie Cornfeld, the
subject of this month's profile by FRANK THISTLE (December, 1974, "Burlesque
Bounces Back.") Cornfeld's girls (who included his mother), games and rewards
reaped him a neat $30 million while his brainchild, Investors' Overseas Service,
crumbled into ash along with a thousand dreams.
SKIP FICKLING makes his debut in HUSTLER with our New "Astrological Guide
to Sex & Money." We think in these days of uncertainty it might be a
good idea to play the stars, and star-gazer Fickling will be making it worth your
while. "Porn Review" takes on a new dimension this month with "X-Rated
Book" reviews by writer-reviewer JIM MARTIN. Martin, a columnist for the
Chicago Herald-Tribune, is also giving readers another first with "Film Talk,"
a lively bit of information on what's happening behind the scenes in the film
world.
Naturally, we've got all our regular features, starting with "Feedback,"
"Advise & Consent," "Bits & Pieces," and the fabulous
cartoon, "HONEY." "Sex Play" delves into anal intercourse;
an incredible "Kinky Korner" written by JACK ARNOLD describes the trials
and tribulations of a first-time slave; and authoress WENDY GREENFIELD joins the
"Mile-High Club."
One more thing. We've got illustrations in the Anniversary Issue that are tops
in the field. Take a close look this month. We think you'll agree.
Good reading to you.

PUBLSHER'S STATEMENT
In 1973 the Supreme Court handed down a landmark decision (Miller vs. California)
regarding sexually explicit materials. The decision was' an apparent abnegation
of the Court's responsibility to determine whether or not sexually explicit materials
are obscene. It gave those powers to state, county and city jurisdictions (local).
Under the 1st Amendment we are guaranteed both freedom of speech and freedom of
press. But according to Miller vs. California (5-4), the Court "revised its
definition to '(1) whether the average person, applying contemporary community
standards, would find that the work taken as a whole appeals to the prurient interest;
(2) whether the work depicts or describes in a patently offensive way, sexual
conduct specifically defined by the applicable state law; (3) whether the work
taken as a whole lacks serious literary, artistic, political or scientific value.'
"
The essential quality of this offensive, persnickety approach to the pursuit of
happiness has given an adultbehavior-regulating privilege to state, county and
lesser administrators who would rather be re-elected than sexually satisfied.
What the decision meant to the media-communications industry was the impending
onslaught of "contradictory and restrictive legislation on the state level.
Not only did this happen, but numerous serious books, films, and magazines were
attacked across the country."
The same year, 1973, seven national trade associations allied themselves in an
effort to alert and inform their members and the public of events in obscenity
legislation and of the dangers inherent in any type of censorship.
Recently, Indiana legislators submitted "S.46," a bill designed in part
to "prohibit display of material on premises where minors have access."
According to Media Coalition, Inc., "Community standards are not defined."
What this means to drugstores, supermarkets, newsstands, bookstores and anywhere
else that men's magazines, women's magazines and even satirical magazines such
as the National Lampoon are displayed, is that customers under the age of 18 are
not allowed to enter the store, if said magazines are reputed to be obscene. You
won't be able to buy HUSTLER, Playboy, Oui, Playgirl, or any of the other titles
you can buy almost anywhere because booksellers won't risk prosecution under new
and capricious local obscenity rulings.
In a previous publisher's statement (March), I stated that, "No one made
you read this magazine." That statement is still true. The impact of rulings
like the one in Indiana can only lead to restriction of rights and privileges
guaranteed under the 1st Amendment. It can conceivably ruin businesses and industries
associated with the legitimate media, film and publishing included. And it threatens
the American people with nihilistic, big-brother-like controls over what many
of us believe is natural and pleasing.
If you want to do something about these "New Victorian" rulings, write
your Congressperson and give light to your views. If you don't care what your
rights are, you are still free to remain silent. |
