PLAYBOY MAGAZINE

The first issue, in December 1953, was undated, as Hefner was unsure there would be a second. He produced it in his Hyde Park kitchen. The first centerfold was Marilyn Monroe, although the picture used originally was taken for a calendar rather than for Playboy.^[24] Hefner chose what he deemed the “sexiest” image, a previously unused nude study of Marilyn stretched with an upraised arm on a red velvet background with closed eyes and mouth open.^[25] The heavy promotion centered around Marilyn’s nudity on the already-famous calendar, together with the teasers in marketing, made the new Playboy magazine a success.^[26][27] The first issue sold out in weeks. Known circulation was 53,991.^[28] The cover price was 50¢. Copies of the first issue in mint to near-mint condition sold for over $5,000 in 2002.^[

Playboy is an American men’s lifestyle and entertainment magazine, formerly in print and currently online. It was founded in Chicago in 1953, by Hugh Hefner and his associates, and funded in part by a $1,000 loan from Hefner’s mother.^[3] Known for its centerfolds of nude and semi-nude^[4] models (Playmates), Playboy played an important role in the sexual revolution^[5] and remains one of the world’s best-known brands, having grown into Playboy Enterprises, Inc. (PEI), with a presence in nearly every medium.^[6] In addition to the flagship magazine in the United States, special nation-specific versions of Playboy are published worldwide, including those by licensees, such as Dirk Steenekamp’s DHS Media Group.^{[7][8][9][10][11]}

The magazine has a long history of publishing short stories by novelists such as Arthur C. Clarke,^[12] Ian Fleming,^[12] Vladimir Nabokov,^[13] Saul Bellow, Chuck Palahniuk, P. G. Wodehouse,^[12] Roald Dahl,^[14] Haruki Murakami, and Margaret Atwood.^[12] With a regular display of full-page color cartoons, it became a showcase for cartoonists such as Harvey Kurtzman, Jack Cole,^[15] Eldon Dedini,^[16] Jules Feiffer,^[17] Shel Silverstein,^[18] Erich Sokol,^[12] Roy Raymonde,^[19] Gahan Wilson, and Rowland B. Wilson.^[20] Playboy features monthly interviews of public figures, such as artists, architects, economists, composers, conductors, film directors, journalists, novelists, playwrights, religious figures, politicians, athletes, and race car drivers. The magazine generally reflects a liberal editorial stance, although it often interviews conservative celebrities.^[21]

After a year-long removal of most nude photos in Playboy magazine, the March–April 2017 issue brought back nudity.^[22]
