Men Only magazine and newspaper catalogue

Men Only was founded in 1935 by C. Arthur Pearson Group as: "a new magazine devoted to solidly masculine interests and diversions, eschewing anything that suggested femininity or effeminacy."   More

Men Only

Founded in 1935, the target group of Men Only was, according to an editorial contribution
"a man up from the country, another on leave, a professional man, and a fourth who was 'a jolly fellow who knew when to crack a joke and when to shut up", 'Our standards are those of any decent West End club the editor said.
Men Only was one of the first magazines printed in pocket format. A typical issue featured a series of stories aimed at men on the go: excerpts from popular books and shorter stories by popular authors and personalities including Winston Churchill, Evelyn Waugh and Seymour Hicks.

In 1950 it even swallowed the famous Strand Magazine, from 'the Economist':

'A publishing house is a business enterprise whose projects must be financially sound, but it is also a trustee of the affections of the reading public, in Britain and overseas, and of that public's standards of taste. It is sad that George Newnes Ltd should have decided that of the three pocket monthly magazines which they publish, they should dispense with the Strand and concentrate on the publication of London Opinion and Men Only.' ("The end of the Strand," Dec 17, p1342).

In the 1960s, it began to lose readers to nude magazines like Playboy and Hustler, and began publishing artistic nudes itself. It was eventually acquired in 1971 by Paul Raymond, a nightclub owner, who turned it into a more explicit magazine, competing directly with Playboy and Mayfair.

Opgericht in 1935 de doelgroep van Men Only was, volgens een redactiebijdrage

"a man up from the country, another on leave, a professional man, and a fourth who was ‘a jolly fellow who knew when to crack a joke and when to shut up", ‘Our standards are those of any decent West End club’, vertelde de redacteur.

Men Only was een van de eerste tijdschriften gedrukt op pocket formaat. Een typisch nummer bevatte een reeks aan verhalen gericht op mannen onderweg: gedeelten uit populaire boeken en kortere verhalen van populaire auteurs en persoonlijkheden onder hen Winston Churchill, Evelyn Waugh en Seymour Hicks.

In 1950 slokte het zelfs het beroemde Strand Magazine, uit 'the Economist':


'A publishing house is a business enterprise whose projects must be financially sound, but it is also a trustee of the affections of the reading public, in Britain and overseas, and of that public's standards of taste. It is sad that George Newnes Ltd should have decided that of the three pocket monthly magazines which they publish, they should dispense with the Strand and concentrate on the publication of London Opinion and Men Only.' ('The end of the Strand,' December 17, p1342).


In de jaren 60 begon het lezers te verliezen aan naaktbladen als Playboy en Hustler, en begon het zelf ook kunstzinnige naakten te publiceren. Uiteindelijk werd het in 1971 overgenomen door Paul Raymond, een nachtclub eigenaar, die er een wat explicieter tijdschrift van maakte, en de directe concurrentie aanging met Playboy en Mayfair.
