Playboy Covers: The Most Iconic of All Time

Playboy is not just a historical platform where women can freely express their sexuality, body, and mind, but a literary work of art. Featuring some of the most prominent writers of our time on subjects far less trivial than other magazines tend to cover, Playboy is truly a magazine to celebrate. Here's a look back at what founder and Editor-in-Chief Hugh Hefner has accomplished since 1953: When Playboy was a mere 50 cents, and all full body shots on the cover were not yet suitable. Look closely at this cover, and in the corner you'll spot the original Playboy bunny. 1970: The issue costs a whopping dollar and nipples become suitable for cover shoots. 1971: Playboy blurs the lines between white and black, making this cover forever iconic. 1970: Playboy debuts their first ever set of Playmate twins on a cover. 1985: Madonna graces the cover of Playboy. We're guessing she styled herself for this cover shoot. 1994: Red hot Anna Nicole Smith takes the grunge '80s look and flips it
