Background

Subtitled "Sex in Perspective". Wikipedia article

drum, subtitled “sex in perspective”, began as the newsletter of Philadelphia’s Janus Society. Clark Polak, a brash homophile leader in the mid-Sixties, appropriated editorship of the newsletter, telling Rodger Streitmatter that he “began drum Magazine as a consistently articulate, well-edited, amusing and informative publication. I envisioned a sort of sophisticated, but down-to-earth, magazine for people who dug gay life and drum’s view of the world.”
