A lively, unbelievably fun art book that celebrates Playgirl magazine’s 50-year anniversary, including historic articles, spreads, commentary, photography, and extensive artwork from the ’70s through today
Playgirl is a movement.
This groundbreaking magazine was never just a pale imitation of Playboy; it was a major player at the dawn of women’s liberation, featuring stories on barrier-breaking women from across the globe, articles about reproductive health, and interviews with feminist icons.
All this revolutionary material could be found nestled among the tasteful and erotic male nudes that the magazine was built on, leading Playgirl to resonate, too, with the significant gay male readership it maintains today.
This wide-reaching Playgirl compendium includes not only some of the most important and engaging archival materials from across the past five decades, but also a number of new essays about the publication’s origins, its role in the women’s liberation movement, and its contributions to pop culture at large.

Iconic. Bold. Timeless. Established in 1973, Playgirl was the first magazine for women to focus on men. From celebrities, to models, to the guy next door, Playgirl has shown it all throughout its rich history.
