This Look‑in cover from July 21 1973 features a painted portrait of David Cassidy, smiling warmly against a textured golden background. The issue promotes a special feature titled “David Cassidy: The Full Story!” along with a colour pin‑up and a competition to win an LP.

The magazine also advertises a stereo‑system giveaway, pocket transistor radios, and a colour spread on The Fenn Street Gang.

The design reflects Look‑in’s signature early‑1970s style — bold typography, vivid colour blocks, and hand‑illustrated celebrity portraits that blended pop art with teen‑mag aesthetics.

Cassidy’s appearance on the cover underscores his status as one of the era’s most beloved teen idols, bridging television fame from The Partridge Family with his solo music success.
