RARE Banned Rolling Stone Chinese Issue First & Only 2006 Magazine U2 China Hat
The first and only issue of Rolling Stone magazine distributed in China, in March 2006. Only 125,000 were printed before production was shut down. See the article below. The magazine is still sealed in its protective plastic wrap with a limited edition souvenir hat. Awesome cover graphic in bright red and yellow. The cover story is on U2. The hat has an attractive Rolling Stone logo. Overall, the package is about 17″ x 14″. The outer wrap has two tears as shown but is still very intact. A rare, museum quality addition to any collection or library. I also have the next issue, which appeared under the name “Audio Visual World” with a photo of the Rolling Stones on the cover, for sale. Please message me for a special deal on them both. The rock’n’ roll publication entered the Chinese market early this month with a huge splash, including billboard advertisements, a 125,000-copy roll-out and free Rolling Stone hats with each magazine. On Wednesday, regulators said they would not allow it to publish a second issue. Articles in the first Chinese edition of Rolling Stone about a rock star associated with the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and a blogger who wrote about her sex life pushed the limits of what is permissible. “They didn’t go through the proper procedure, ” said Chen Li, director of the newspaper and magazine department of the Shanghai Press and Publishing Administration, where Rolling Stone was published, under the guise of an existing Chinese magazine. There will be no future Rolling Stone content in this magazine. There’s no such thing as’Rolling Stone. Rolling Stone crossed several red lines, according to sources familiar with regulators’ displeasure. More than half the content in the first edition is translated from the U. Edition, with articles about filmmakers Michael Moore and George Clooney and the late writer Hunter S. Thompson, yet it never received formal approval from the government. It also ignored requirements that the publication’s original Chinese name be printed in large type on the cover with its foreign name smaller and less prominent. In its first issue, Rolling Stone splashed its English name across the front in far larger type than its official Chinese title. Rolling Stone also reportedly rankled Chinese censors with a cover story about Cui Jian, the father of Chinese rock and roll. ” Cui played in Tiananmen Square in 1989, with his most famous song, “Nothing to My Name, emerging as something of an anthem for protesters. “Rolling Stone was quite tricky, ” said one executive in the industry who spoke on condition of anonymity, citing continuing dealings with regulators. But they got nailed. The content was well beyond what the Propaganda Department could tolerate, aside from their not pretending to follow the rules.
