A buddy of mine has been haunting flea markets and online auctions looking to feed his unquenchable hunger for old comic books and magazines. He managed to score this issue of Playgirl’s Games for Lovers from March of 1981 as part of a lot of several mouldering mags from around the same era. Beyond the cover, there’s not much to recommend this particular publication. It’s a collection of puzzles, coloring book pages, throw-away articles and paper dolls all printed on cheap newsprint which has long since yellowed. It’s remarkable that somebody bought it and held on to it for forty-some years.

One man’s trash… is another man’s treasure…
This was trash. A space filler in the publish or perish days of print. It took up room on the shelf at a newsstand.
