Playboy is what many of us remember as our first taste of NAUGHTY when we were growing up. I remember that my Dad had a stash of them hidden in his bedroom in the cupboards behind his bed. I never saw him read one. The only reason I knew that they were there was because of my snooping around. I don’t remember who was on the cover or the inside of the ones I saw, but then how would I? I didn’t have a reference to who any of these women were. They were just naked women to me, and since I had never seen one except my pre-pubescent self, I was very interested in looking at them. Do you guys remember who was on the cover of the first Playboy mag you ever saw?
Sadly the rumors that Playboy is for sale are for real, at least according to at least twenty news outlets. Analysts are saying it’s worth 100 million. Hugh Hefner wants 300 mil. It’s expensive to keep all those girlfriends happy!
First one I bought had Julie McCullogh on the cover, bought it cause then Chicago Cub ballgirl Marla Collins posed in it. Rebekka Armstrong was the Centerfold, she of course became HIV positive. $100 mil seems low, but $300 mil is too high and its future is limited in revenue. They blew too many oppurtunities to make money away from the magazine, like the casino they tried to open in Atlantic City 30 years ago.
Mine would be the August 1989 issue; Brandi Brandt on the cover. Brandt dressed in a business jacket, but nothing else. Simple but very sexy.
Mine has Shannon Tweed as a Centerfold.
The one with Anna Nicole Smith paying homage to Marilyn Monroe on the cover.
Not a bad issue to start off with, if I do say so myself.
