We couldn’t afford National Geographic.
It was Sears Roebuck or nothing.
The height of educational literature delivered to our house was a bi monthly farm journal.
Nothing sexy there
First eggs were going to kill me, then it was butter, then bacon.
Suddenly it sneaks out our dear govt was wrong about the eggs, so I assume they screwed the pooch on the butter as well. No way are they getting their hands on my bacon!
Now they tell me I have to respect and make allowances for homosexuals, muslims and other mentally deficient people.
Wonder if the country will last long enough for the govt to realize they were wrong about all of that?
All things great and small are now under the govt thumb.
Most days I just want someone to stop the world and let me off.
That is my preference, as well.
Used to read Iron Horse and Outlaw Biker as well but can’t seem to fine either of them locally, since Borders closed down.
Well, if "National Geographic" can stop focusing on geography in favor of left wing nonsense....
Next up "Reader's Digest" will stop featuring words.
Our schools were big on having us quislings sell mag subscriptions to raise money....that’s the only reason why we might have had them at home.
***It was Sears Roebuck or nothing.****
Ah yes. Beautiful models wearing lacy underwear, OVER black leotards. I remember those days!
Hugh Hefner outlived his magazine.
True, and that RARELY HAPPENS.
Yep.
Wait until they come out with a “healthy at any size” issue. It was born from Hefner and will die with Hefner.
Oh well... I only got it for the articles anyway...
(yeah, I know... “/s” to make you all happy :^))
ITS ALL BUSHES FAULT!!
There ain’t no bushes no more.
>>>Playboy centerfolds haven’t had staples since 1985<<<
Wow, I am getting old. Haven’t see a Playboy in Decades.
I guess nowadays the pages are held together with some sort of sticky substance.
So is reading, period.
I work at a school library. Hardly anyone looks through the magazines. They'll read books only for a class. Otherwise, they're on their laptops or smartphones, downloading FB or Netflix -- anything but a book or article.
So what is the point of PB? Is it really viable? Yes I remember PB's excellent editorial content. My dad enjoyed the articles (also the, ahem, "other stuff"-- let's not kid ourselves!). But nobody under 30 seems to read anymore.
So now people WILL actually buy it for the articles.
DANG!
Varga girls are the best!
ahahah GREAT line!
I have to wonder what their advertisers will do?
The logo is. The Playboy rabbit head is one of the most iconic and recognizable logos ever created. Perhaps once it is no longer associated with a nudie mag, it could become even more valuable.
A friend of mine took a photo of his girlfriend on his bike and submitted it to Easy Rider. Don’t know if it got published.
I have not picked up a copy in years.
They went from classic bikes to the OCC style stuff and I’m not interested in Trailer Queen bikes.
I like stuff that can be *ridden*.
Other mags are currently showing lots of old school bobbers [which I love] so I gawk at them, instead.
