Rolling Stone is an American music, politics, and popular culture magazine founded in 1967. This copy is dated May 31, 1979 (Issue No. 292), priced $1.00 / UK 60p, and features Jon Voight on the cover following his Academy Award win.
The main cover headline reads “Jon Voight – After the Oscars: Conversation with a Champion,” presenting Voight in a close, introspective portrait that reflects his post‑Oscar status and serious dramatic reputation at the end of the 1970s.
Additional cover features and headlines include:
Teenage Alcoholism – A Modern Tragedy
Ron Wood and the New Barbarians
