Playboy Re-Releases Its First Issue 60 Years Later Featuring Iconic Marilyn Monroe on Cover

After 60 years and a few months, Playboy readers have the opportunity to revisit the issue where it all started. Last week, the magazine rolled out exact replica reprints of its inaugural December 1953 issue featuring the iconic Marilyn Monroe on the cover.

This isn't the first time Playboy has leveraged its existing assets to spike revenue while celebrating its history. Two years ago it dug into its archive and released e-books that highlight some of its best interviews over the past 50 years.
