Every Playboy Centerfold 1954 - Today

[ernie2003]

First, thanks for taking the time to post these. A great retrospective to be sure.

We are curious to see when the changeover from bushy to shaved occurs in the centerfold models. No doubt somewhere after the 70's, but not real sure exactly when that happened. We will stay tuned.

Really enjoying this thread, so many classic beauties!

The September 1979 issue was one of the first I got my horny little hands on, so Miss Vicky McCarty holds a special place in my heart Thanks for the memories!: http://www.facialforum.net/attachmen...3&d=1296865399

Thanks for all your hard work. They are looking great.

I figured we'll be seeing women with breast implants in the 80s. Isn't that when they started and/or got popular?

Posting all this takes a lot of time and effort. The pics are greatly appreciated. I'm quite certain the first picture of a naked woman I ever saw is contained somewhere in here...

My first naked woman ever was actually an issue of Easy Rider.

Great thread idea and effort too. I recognize a few of the beauties from the 70's pics. They were among the porn stash I used to raid from my Dad's collection. Always had to be extra careful no errant shots landed on the pages. I am sure there will be many more I recognize from the early 80's. Thanks.

You can also definitely start to see change in how they took shots in the 80's. Backgrounds, tan lines, bush trimmings all started to really change in the 80's.

The bush gets smaller with all the changes in bikinis. So do tan lines. In the 2000's is actually when it is all shaved. You see trimmed bush in the 80's, and landing strips in the 90's.

Breast implants were few in the 80's, but they become a staple in the 2000's.

The year is 1980.

Controversy - May 1980

Playboy first joined the mile-high club with flight attendant Ester Cordet. The Panamanian model was crowned Miss October in 1974. Her appearance in Playboy caused a stir with her employer, the now-defunct Pacific Southwest Airlines. According to reports, Cordet was relieved of her duties shortly after her debut.
Six years later, Cordet's saga basically repeated itself when model Martha Elizabeth Thomsen posed for Playboy's May 1980 issue in a sexy stewardess uniform. Delta stewardess Linda Jo Lehner and TWA stewardess Nancy Nachtigal were suspended by their airlines for also appearing in the spread.

Controversy - November 1980
Just a few days before Ronald Regan was elected in the 1980 Presidential election, Playboy celebrated the nation's patriotic fervor with a special 10-page "Women of the U.S. Government" issue. The issue raised eyebrows both inside and outside of the Beltway, including those of syndicated Washington Post columnist Art Buchwald. The late columnist was especially weary of the magazine's political motives and that "the rest of the country might get the impression that all Washington women look like these women." All kidding aside, two D.C.-based Naval enlistees were court martial-ed for posing in the spread. A Navy spokesperson condoned the actions of Yeoman Darlene and Aubrey Rein, who both posed semi-nude in the issue, saying "The Navy considers it inappropriate for its personnel to pose in the nude or semi-nude." Both women were honorably discharged from the service.

The year is 1981.

Shannon Tweed - November 1981
While her life partner has made the claim that he’s slept with hundreds to thousands of women, this Playmate likes to keep his “Family Jewels” close to home. Miss November 1981 and POY 1982 Shannon Tweed has been with bassist Gene Simmons of Kiss since 1985 and has recently become a household name again with the A&E show “Gene Simmons Family Jewels.” Shannon was known for many years for her skills as an actress in erotic thrillers for which she was obviously qualified.
