'I only read it for the articles'. Few modern punch lines (and lies!) are as iconic as this one. But humour and good writing aside, the true allure of "Playboy" is the magazine's spectacular cover images. The stunning women who have graced these covers have enticed millions from the fifties through to today. Now Hugh Hefner has chosen 200 of "Playboy's" most breathtaking, innovative covers for this lush retrospective, digitally reproduced and in colour. Acclaimed author and long-time "Playboy" writer Damon Brown explores how the magazine's newsstand decisions made an indelible impact on American culture, while ultimate Playmate Pamela Anderson provides an illuminating foreword.
