Playboy, January 1965



Only in Hefner’s universe would Harold Pinter and pin-ups collide as they do in the January 1965 issue.

Yes, Penthouse Man could not survive on carnal pleasure and fast cars alone, apparently. Between playing chess and seducing beautiful women after a hard day on Madison Avenue he was reading quality literature.  


Here comes the obligatory beatnik joke...text by Peter Ustinov.
