In six days, and for as little as $4.95, my current bid, I may become the proud owner of this rare example of late 1960's American maleness, which is described as being:
Good or close to very good condition, excellent for its age. Centerfold attached.
It shows some use, but no abuse.
"No abuse." That's what you want in an old copy of Playboy magazine. "Centerfold attached" also seems to be somewhat of a bonus. Or so I've heard.
It's the Gala Christmas Issue! |
- An interview with Johnny Carson (Jay Leno's warm-up act)
- An article about the Vietnam War written by John Kenneth Galbraith
- Humor by Jean Shepherd (one of my idols, and probably one of yours, too, if you've ever seen the movie "A Christmas Story.")
- Fiction by Irwin Shaw
- An article about privacy written by Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas (so odd for Playboy to address privacy issues...)
- More fiction, this time by Isaac Bashevis Singer
- Elke Sommer's Wicked Dreams -- a pictorial (I did not know that '60s screen vixen Elke Sommer was an expert on dream research -- that's crazy!)

Yes, I am that dedicated.

Don't know if you ever got the mag, Mark, but it's now online (however briefly).

Do you have the lengthy UFO roundtable from Playboy January 1978? (Salisbury, in Utah UFO Display, explains how the article was assembled. Interesting.)
I sure wish it had been this easy to get Playboys when I was a lad.
I'll check out the article, thanks!
