Volume 46 Issue # 1 COVER STORY
Forty-Five years ago, Hugh Hefner took a bold gamble and started a magazine
with a singular image of Marilyn Monroe. To celebrate that union, we recruited
artist Rob Silvers to create a new cover using five decades of past PLAYBOY
covers. Silvers, who designed the computer program that performs this magic,
used unaltered PLAYBOY covers to generate the image. Look closely and you can
identify nearly every month from our 45 years. At a distance, Marilyn appears,
and reminds us how it all began.
