Product Description
Teen Magazine-May 1960-74 pages. This vintage Teen Magazine-which originally sold for twenty five cents-features a cover color photo of Frankie Avalon plus an article with photos.Discussing Frankie Avalon's career as a mover and shaker in 1950s rock & roll with anyone who takes their rock & roll even halfway seriously is to court derision. Avalon was the first of the manufactured teen idols, before Fabian and Bobby Rydell and the myriad of other pretenders to the throne who worked the turf with tight black pants and red, red sweaters to the fore while Elvis cooled his heels in Germany. In the late '50s and early '60s, post-Twist and pre-Beatles, these generally untalented pretty boys were the cardboard no-threat remnants of a post-Elvis age. But Avalon had a real musical background to go with the pretty boy looks, and was no drugstore teenager waiting to be discovered. The Teen Magazine has been autographed on the front cover by Frankie Avalon................BOTH MAGAZINE AND AUTOGRAPH ARE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION.......................Product Videos
