National Lampoon — January 1971, "Women" Issue, King Kong Parody Cover (Vintage Magazine)
Original January 1971 issue of National Lampoon — the magazine’s tenth issue overall and the first of its second year. Theme: Women. The cover is a direct parody of King Kong: a woman in a white dress straddles the Empire State Building, machine gun in hand, gorilla dangling from her arm. Teasers: Cosmopolitan Parody · Women’s Lib Pinup · “Would You Want Your Brother to Marry One?” Original cover price: 75¢.
One of the most visually striking covers of the Lampoon’s second year — a direct engagement with the Women’s Liberation movement at its peak cultural moment, rendered in the magazine’s signature irreverent style. Stored in a protective sleeve. Sold as found.
