Description: Playboy Magazine Playboy Magazine | V.12 #10 October 1965 | Reader/Good 1965 witnessed explosive growth of Playboy Magazine. By June it had exceeded the 3,000,000 (3 million) in monthly circulation mark. It had established itself as the Premiere Men's Magazine of the decade, and attracted top writers, and Interview Subjects (The Beatles, Martin Luther King...). By now, there were 12 Playboy Clubs in operation, with more opening every year. In late 1965, Lt. Jack Price of the 173rd Airborne’s 503rd Infantry Regiment bought his company a lifetime subscription to Playboy. The magazine had just launched a crazy promotional offer: The first issue of the subscription would be delivered in person by a Playboy playmate. Price was deployed in Vietnam. Jo Collins delivered the promise to our troops. 1965 Playmates Sally Duberson Jessica St. George Jennifer Jackson Sue Williams Maria McBane Hedy Scott Gay Collier Lannie Balcom Patti Reynolds Allison Parks Pat Russo Dinah Willis Allison Parks CGC Grading**Estimated CGC Grade Range ** New Unread 10.0 Gem Mint 9.9 Mint 9.8 Near Mint/Mint 9.6 Near Mint + 9.4 Near Mint 9.2 Near Mint - 9.0 Very Fine/Near Mint 8.5 Very Fine + 8.0 Very Fine 7.5 Very Fine - 7.0 Fine/Very Fine 6.5 Fine + 6.0 Fine 5.5 Fine - 5.0 Very Good/Fine 4.5 Very Good + 4.0 Very Good 3.5 Very Good - 3.0 Good/Very Good 2.5 Good + 2.0 Good 1.8 Good - 1.5 Fair/Good 1.0 Fair 0.5 Poor Vintage Playboy SIMPLIFIED GRADING NOTESNEW (SEALED) Unread new issue in either Factory Seal or Retailer seal (Newsstand editions sealed by the retailer to prevent reading at the store) NEAR MINT(NM) (CGC 9.0 - 10.0) Looks new.

NOTES: There is NO allowance or consideration for the "age" of the Playboy magazine in regards to it's grade. A 1950's issue is no different than a 2020 issue when evaluating its condition....so, if you are a collector, and grade is important to you, when you see "it looks good for it's age" I would reconsider the purchase.QUALIFIED: A qualified grade simply means that "IF" the noted defect was NOT considered, this is what the issue would grade as. Frequently used when a loose centerfold or missing page is present, grading the issue on its merits, not including the flaw.
