BETTY DAVIS, DONNA SUMMER AND LITTLE BEAVER IN HEP MAGAZINE
posted by O.W.
I came upon this magazine today: a 1976 issue of Hep, an African American tabloid from the 1970s, published out of Ft. Worth, TX. This particular issue, apart from noting that "Blacks Are More Psychic Than White" and that alarming, banner story about a wild boy raised by monkeys, also had a cover story about Betty Davis, plus stories on Donna Summer's "new" single ("Love To Love You Baby") and Miami's Little Beaver. I scanned in the relevant pages to share with you all (wig ads not included).
Bonus: More scans. These include a feature on the death of original Supremes member Florence Ballard, a random assortment of advertising and yes, wig ads by popular request, PLUS a racial explanation of psychic powers.
