Description: Vintage Playboy Magazine #1 December 1953 NOT A REPRINT !! AUTHENTIC 70 YEAR OLD COMPLETE FIRST ISSUE !! tight, flat, higher grade book, no missing pages or cutouts, no writing inside or out, no holes, no big rips or tears, maybe a nick(s) ?.... The cover (only the cover) was printed by Playboy Press 10 years ago. This cover is not attached to the original 70 year old pages...It could be done professionally . ....BUT the Entire balance of this complete issue is high/ higher grade and complete. If this book had a 70 yr/old cover instead of a 10 yr/old cover it would be $4500-$6500 . The condition of this book is in the top 10% of existing copies.!!!!.......... If you're not sure that the magazine is an original #1 from 1953 look at the "Spine Pictures" of the book without the cover on it. Authentic #1's, like this one, only have two staples in the spine. This is clearly shown on my spine pics AND look at the centerfold of the book...which is the Sherlock Holmes story, not Marilyn Monroe picture. You can clearly see only two staples tightly holding the book together. If you look at ANY Reprint of this issue...they ALL have three staples. The Cover being supplied IS a reprint by Playboy Press and Did have three staples holding it . So what you have is a very nice higher grade tight complete authentic 70 year old #1 issue of Playboy and a 10 year old cover that was also printed by Playboy. A VERY ECONOMICAL WAY TO HAVE AN AUTHENTIC TRUELY HARD TO FIND #1 ISSUE of Playboy to complete your collection!! Your book will be professionally packaged, safe & secure. It will be shipped USPS Priority Mail, insured, w/ your signature required to receive it.Thanks for looking!!
