S. male, Esquire has made itself the house organ of all brands of U. S. adolescence, its most interesting single product drawings of cellophane-glossed girls by George Petty. Despite its coy title. The Bedside Esquire contains no art-teasers; it is solid print. Among the 77 items: stories or articles, mainly second-rate, by the late D. H. Lawrence and Thome Smith...
