Cosmopolitan first issue cover |
Cosmopolitan
March 1972. National Magazine Co, London. 144+4pp. 20p. Ed: Joyce Hopkirk; art ed: Sue Wade; publisher: Brian Braithwaite
Twenty-one-year-old Julie Crosthwait was the model for the first issue cover taken by David Magnus. She was chosen by editorial director Helen Gurley Brown and told the Daily Mirror 30 years later (Feb 21): 'I didn't live the Cosmopolitan lifestyle at all. I must admit I was a bit shocked when I actually read the magazine.' Vivien Neves was featured in a Miss Selfridge advert on page 3.
