“COVER: Once again our own Art Director, Michael “Has Anybody Got an Eraser?” Gross, elbows his way into your home with this month’s cover. His last (“Is Nothing Sacred?” January, ’72) sold literally dozens after being made into a handsome wall poster. Come to think of it, his career has been looking pretty grim generally, particularly since Frederick’s of Hollywood started using photographs instead of free-lance art in their rubber-frock catalogues.

 “Just kidding, Mike, heh heh.

 “Eat me.”

The cover shows a giant panda near the Washington Monument. Several Chinese soldiers and a tank are emerging.
