Editorial Note
Debauchery is the keynote at this time of year and as my original mandate for
Game was that of a high-class debauchee's handbook, at last the month and the
magazine are totally in synch in this our first anniversary issue. Where else
could you find the magnificent Mona Lisa with her knickers down? Who else would
publish distasteful interviews with Shakespeare and Napoleon?
In keeping with our hard won corporate identity we've added to our charismatic
karma by launching Pornucopia (page 4). This magazine within a magazine caters
to a taste-level which has yet to be plumbed by even the lowest forms of life,
but bear with us—it can hardly get worse. Based on a nightmare by yours
truly and made flesh by the manic pen of Richard Deutch, this is the first real
attempt to cause mass hernias by means of the publisher's art. Try the Lixon/Lovelust
confrontation for openers . . . Next month W. C. Fields meets Mary Poppins, I
kid you not!
Last month's face to face with the wildly successful Norman Jewison left us with
the inevitable problem of 'follow that!' I drew up a list of five directors capable
of doing same and up popped Ken Russell. David Litchfield has earned my eternal
gratitude by working the necessary miracle.
The Game motoring column could hardly be accused of pandering to the Morris 1000
brigade, having already dealt with the Ferrari Dino, the Mach I Mustang and the
Lotus Elite, but this month we've landed the plum to end them all. Courtesy of
Rod Leach, who runs the most unique specialised car business in the country (known
simply as Nostalgia), we present — quite literally — the ONLY right-hand
drive, 7-litre, road-going A.C. Cobra in existence. Check out COB I on our motoring
pages (41-43).
One more final word about The Mona Lisa Show (page 57 and already referred to
above). Nick Treadwell's gallery has provided us with the best feature on contemporary
art yet — and furthermore, these Mona Lisas are for sale!
That little lot should take your attention to half mast, leaving the ladies to
take you the rest of the way.
Season's Greetings
