Editorial Note
PORNO EDS. MIX WITH STARS!
Dear Readers:
I'm sure it's been a burning question for most of you for years. Now, STAG's editor
will answer it for you: "What exactly does a porno editor do when he's not
grinding away at his typewriter, looking at dirty pictures, or hobnobbing with
the stars and studs of the X-Rated flicks?" Well, now you know! We go mingling
with the stars of some of our favorite TV shows. Surely you recognize yours truly
with Lionel "Max" Stander from Hart to Hart, and you soap fanatics should
recognize Nancy Addison who's been a star of Ryan's Hope for more than ten years!
The other woman is E.Z. Virtue, the editor of Swank, tipping our drinks in health
at a Mixologist Contest to decide the most original and tasty of cocktails involving
one of this editor's favorites, Southern Comfort. While E.Z. and myself opted
for the Daily Double Southern Comfort, fruit juice, and Amaretto, the judges decided
on the Comfortable Freeze, a libation combining pineapple juice, grendaine, and
then blended with the Southern Comfort. Both are just fine with us!
But never fear; I didn't get so sloshed that I didn't have the time to plan another
sex-crammed, pussy-jammed issue of your favorite magazine. This month we salute
those men who ride the highways, driving their big rigs from coast to coast. Our
centerspread involves a lucky trucker who just happens on the scene at the right
moment. We follow this with a raunchy tale of a trucker who finds a delicious
exhibitionist ready for more than mere road games. You'll also want to check out
in addition to our other hot photo sets, our special spread on Ashley Britten,
one of the classiest newcummers to the skin game on Page 56. Remember, if you
like what you see, you gotta let us know! The Editors

About Stag
The first Stag magazine, published by Leeds Publishing Corp., beginning with vol. 1, #1 (June 1937), was a 25-cent, 96-page, digest subtitled "A Magazine for Men" and which included articles and stories by such writers as Carleton Beals, Elsa Maxwell, Bernard Sobel, and Hendrik Willem van Loon. It covered a range of topics, including literature, music, sports, and theater, along with stories on male-female relationships, sexual issues, and such topics as striptease.
A second volume, published by Official Com. Inc. and edited by Noah Sarlat, appeared circa 1951 as a 25-cent, 82-page, standard-sized men's adventure magazine. This version, containing ostensibly "true-life" fiction of men in wartime or in rugged adventure mode, continued through at least volume 22 in 1971, by which time it had published by Martin Goodman's related company, Atlas Magazines Inc., and Magazine Management Co., Inc., by which time the cover price had been raised to 50 cents.
Goodman also published the annual publication Stag Annual, starting in 1964.
Writer Dorothy Gallagher reminisced in 1998 that by the early 1960s, when Magazine Management occupied the second floor at 60th Street and Madison Avenue, "...magazines were produced the way Detroit produced cars. I worked on the fan-magazine line. On the other side of a five-foot partition was the romance-magazine line. And across a corridor were the financial staples of the organization, the men's magazines — Stag, For Men Only, Male — for which, at one time or another, Mario Puzo, Bruce Jay Friedman, David Markson, Mickey Spillane and Martin Cruz Smith wrote, until they became too exalted and rich to do it anymore." Cover illustrators included Frank Soltesz.
Stag transitioned to become a men's pornographic magazine, published by Goodman's son Charles "Chip" Goodman at Magazine Management's successor company, Swank Publications. The publishing group Magna bought Stag and its sister publication Swank from that company in 1993.
