Looking back at old random magazines and their content using youtube

Sports Illustrated December 7th 1981 issue

I thought I'd start of this historical look back of old magazines  and what was inside of them using current youtube videos would be interesting for retro sake and sometimes funny. I want to start it off by doing the first SI magazine that was put out after I was born.  Most of the stuff however that I will post from now on will also come from magazines I own.



1st thing I thought about when i saw the cover was the great song from Wings called Band On The Run. I remember seeing a book about Paul McCartney once called Man On The Run , I know a few people who think man on the run is the lyric in the song, not band. Anyways this the soundtrack to this magazine, yeah wtf.

I will post videos from around that time from ads (or closely related to) in the magazine as well. Cameras have come a long way.
