I recently picked up a copy of "Rolling Stone" #91, September 16, 1971, which has a cover story about Marvel Comics. The article was written by Robin Green, Stan Lee's secretary for a couple of years after Flo Steinberg left the company. Robin talked with Flo for the piece, and she also returned to Marvel to interview several people still there, like Herb Trimpe, Marie Severin, and Jim Steranko. The article concludes with her interview with Stan Lee, himself. Below is part of the article (Stan's interview), and the photos (taken by D.E. Leach), and the cover to that issue by Herb Trimpe.

Okay, left to right I recognize (or think I do) these people: Gil Kane, Bill Everett, Herb Trimpe, Marie severin, Stan G (?), Roy Thomas, John Romita, Sr., and Morrie Kuramoto. Anybody else want to name the others?

Fabulous Flo Steinberg

Steranko seems like quite a colorful character.

That might be Gerry Conway, fourth from left. (It's been a long time!)

That's definitely John Verpoorten in the back, at center.

1971 was the year I first visited the Marvel offices.

Cool. I wonder if I can request a back issue from RS.
