First published in 1949, Foxcroft Magazine was the first mainstream US publication to mix artful nude photographs, progressive commentary, and literature for upscale men. While Frank Foxcroft’s hedonistic lifestyle, trendy manse, and Minx Clubs are a hallmark of the sophisticated businessman or cosmopolitan world traveller, much of the publication’s fascination comes from its flirtations with the world of bohemian arts and music. For the magazine’s twentieth anniversary, a group of the elite, and want-to-be elite, will gather at the New York Minx Club for a screening of America:1969 a film financed by Foxcroft and produced by a little known independent filmmaker. Madison Avenue executives and creatives, recording industry gliteratti, and American heroes will mix, more or less uncomfortably, with screen stars, writers, and artists.
