Men!

"COVER: Readers searching for the answer to the question 'Who draws more covers for the National Lampoon than any other New-York-based illustrator working out of a brownstone on East Forty-ninth Street with the initials D.H.?' will find a clue on the half-shell, just above the D.H. signature. Painting by Dick Hess, decoration by Sandro Botticelli. As the cover proclaims, this month's theme is 'Men!,' as in 'Hooray for men!' or 'Oh, men!' Take it as you like it." [The cover is a parody of the well-known Botticelli Venus. The figure has a copy of Playboy in his hand.]
