Playboy-english
Playboy is a slightly erotic American monthly magazine that first appeared in December 1953. Since then, it has led a turbulent but nonetheless continuous existence.
Playboy is a cocktail of mainly long fiction texts written by some of the world’s greatest artists, along with very wide-ranging articles on less obvious subjects, often about art, and from the 1960s onwards, a page-long interview with this or that (im)celebrity; all of this seasoned with a subtle layer of eroticism, although the word ‘subtle’ may be omitted from the 1990s onwards. Not to be forgotten, an endless section of readers’ letters, interesting to know how John with the cap thought at the time.
Except for the erotic chapters, you will find relatively few photos in this magazine, at least as far as the issues before 1985 are concerned.
