This 1972 edition of the notorious adult humor publication showcases the irreverent spirit of American jokelore with a bold oil painted cover by hillbilly artist Pierre Davis. Released by SRI Publishing in Fort Worth Texas this sixty four page issue titled Ring-a-Ding features a curated collection of ribald cartoons and bawdy anecdotes that defined the era of the sexual revolution.

The interior is packed with black and white illustrations from prolific artists including Robert Stogsdill Henry Hardin Charles Dennis and Woody Kimbrell alongside risqué limericks and short humorous poetry. Combining rural wit with uncensored themes ranging from domestic misadventures to provocative satire this magazine represents a unique niche in vintage men’s publishing for collectors of lowbrow art and mid-century comedy.

As an authentic archive of robust he-man humor it remains a striking example of the unapologetic and controversial style championed by publisher John Newbern.
