Hey ... even if you just read the articles : ) This is a great book that is actually history ... What do Marilyn Monroe, Bettie Page, Jayne Mansfield and Brigitte Bardot have in common? They are the most alluring sex symbols of all time--and they all graced the pages of Playboy in the 1950s. But Playboy wasn't only about beautiful women--it featured serious literature by equally serious writers like Hemingway, Kerouac, Bradbury, and Steinbeck.

Playboy Cover to Cover--the 50s brings the magazine's entire groundbreaking first decade--every issue, every page, cover to cover--into one searchable digital archive.

This exclusive box set features the Bondi Reader, powerful MAC or PC browsing software that allows you to explore, search, save and arrange multiple reading lists. Every story, feature and interview, and of course every Playmate, can be located in seconds, and then compiled and cross-referenced however you choose. Playboy Cover to Cover--the 50s also comes with a 224–page companion coffee table book chronicling the behind-the- scenes history of Playboy and filled with never-before-published letters, photos, and contact sheets of Playboy’s amazing first decade. A collector's edition reissue of the extremely rare first issue--featuring Marilyn Monroe's breathtaking cover and pictorial--is included as a special bonus. This essential collection is a must for lifelong fans and subscribers of Playboy, nostalgia seekers, history and culture buffs, as well as all lovers of beautiful women.
