Men with single publication recalled one model in paper (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

origami

'model in paper' is the definition.

'men with single publication recalled one' is the wordplay.
'men with' becomes 'or' (I've seen this in other clues).
'single' becomes 'I' (one).
'publication' becomes 'mag' (abbreviation for magazine).
'recalled' is a reversal indicator.
'one' becomes 'I' (Roman numeral).
'mag' in reverse letter order is 'gam'.
'or'+'i'+'gam'+'i'='ORIGAMI'

(Other definitions for origami that I've seen before include "Paper-folding skill" , "Japanese art of folding or tearing paper" , "Art originally created in simple materials to design bird forms" , "Japanese craft of paper-tearing" , "Delicate operations" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
