New York Ace
New York Ace was an underground newspaper founded in New York City in late 1971 by ex-East Village Other staffers to fill the void created by the demise of the EVO. Ace was published by 21-year-old Rex Weiner and edited by 18-year-old Bob Singer. Staffers included P.J. O'Rourke, Tom Forcade, A.J. Weberman, Jay Kinney, Yossarian, D.A. Latimer, R. Meltzer, Coca Crystal, and Jim Buckley. Steve Heller, art director of Screw magazine, moonlighted as art director of Ace. The first issue of Ace, produced in Weiner's Thompson St. apartment on a shoestring budget of a few hundred dollars, was dated Dec. 22, 1971. Published biweekly in tabloid format, the Ace had a print run of 6000 copies and never succeeded in attracting advertisers. Despite the infusion of $5000 by a financial angel at Columbia U
