I know because I was Head Writer of the magazine and I got this hot off the press! Kept sealed in original plastic wrapping since new - stored dry, cool, away from sunlight. Truly untouched and in the best possible condition you'll find. Jacques captured that raw, film-shot, unretouched vintage Playboy spirit with provocative photos, opinionated writing, and themes that celebrated body positivity and artistry.
Issue 2 continued the momentum from the debut, featuring stunning model shoots and editorials that made it a short-lived but highly collectible gem. It's VERY rare to find this issue outside of a complete set. Perfect addition for collectors of Jonathan Leder's work, independent magazines, soft-core photography zines, or 2000s Brooklyn indie culture. Happy to chat authenticity or answer questions about the mag's history! This one's a beauty-grab it before it's gone!
