Playboy Magazine

Playboy magazine was first published in December 1953. Founded Hugh Hefner and his associates, playboy magazine has gone on to become the massive Playboy Enterprises, Inc., reaching into every form of media. Playboy is one of the world's best known brands.

In addition to the initial Playboy magazine in the United States, special nation-specific versions of Playboy magazine are published worldwide.The first issue was an immediate sensation; it sold out within a matter of weeks. Known circulation was 53,991 and it sold for a price of 50 cents.

Playboy magazine is published monthly and features photographs of nude women, along with various articles on fashion, sports, consumer goods, and public figures. Playboy magazine's use of "tasteful" nude photos is often classified as "softcore" in contrast to the more "hardcore" pornographic magazines that started to appear in the 1970s in response to the success of Playboy's more explicit rival, Penthouse.

The first centerfold in Playboy magazine was Marilyn Monroe, although the picture used had originally been taken for a calendar, rather than for Playboy. Playboys famous logo, depicting the stylized profile of a rabbit wearing a tuxedo bow tie, was designed by art designer Art Paul for the magazine's second issue and has appeared on every issue since; a running joke in the magazine involves hiding the logo somewhere in the cover art or photograph.
