Award Winning Cover
In October of 2005 the American Institute of Magazine Editors (ASME) choose this issue's cover as one of the best magazine covers of the previous 40 years. It was devised by senior Art Director Len Willis who celebrated his 40th year with PLAYBOY in 2006. Model Darine Stern was photographed by Richard Fegley and was the first black woman to appear on her own on the cover of PLAYBOY. |

Liv Lindeland Miss January 1971 and PMOY 1972 appears, nude, in a double page subscription advert on pages 46-47.
Dick Butkus is probably the greatest linebacker of his generation and certainly amongst the best (American football) players of all time.
Ilona Zahn in her "beautuiful reasons" double page PanAm advert on pages 64-65.

| Darine Stern's pose is reproduced on the cover of a non-subscriber version of the November 2009 issue. For it the cartoon character Marge Simpson replaces Darine in the rabbit head chair. Widely reported as the first cartoon character to grace the cover this is not strictly speaking correct. Femlin, the cartoon character created for Playboy by LeRoy Neiman, while certainly not as widely known as Marge, appeared on the August 1960 issue's cover. The rabbit was on the cover from the second issue and in the form that is even more well known than Marge from the April 1956 issue. And, of course, who could forget Laura Richmond's depiction of Jessica Rabbit on the cover of the November 1988 issue. |
