Good

Good. Both covers are complete and the pool-blue cover still pops, with honest wear at the edges for its age. Every mark is in the photos.

THE STORY BEHIND THE OBJECT.

WHY IT MATTERS

Los Angeles hosted the Summer Olympics in 1984, and In Touch, the L.A. magazine known for its blond surfer boys, answered with its own Sports Spectacular: "not the official magazine of the Summer Olympics." The back cover is a full-page RAM and Quicksilver ad, the kind of poppers money that kept gay magazines printing.

OBJECT STORY

In Touch for Men Number 93, $3.95 (U.K. £2.00): the "Sports Spectacular!" issue, billed as "NOT the official magazine of the Summer Olympics!" with a crossed-out Olympic rings badge, and "More pages! More photos! More men!"

The cover boy is shoulder-deep in a pool with a gold chain and a grin. The back cover is Great Lakes Products of Indianapolis selling Quicksilver, Hardware and RAM "room odorizers," copyright 1984.
