When Hugh Hefner first came up with the innovative idea of a men’s magazine devoted totally to men’s interests and to photographs of some of the world’s most famous and beautiful women, beginning with his first issue in December 1953, completely attributed to Marilyn Monroe, little did he know that he had opened himself a Pandora’s box for a myriad of additional editions of Playboy magazine.

Among them, and by no mean the least collected was Hef’s introduction of Playboy College Girls Special Edition which is released periodically, but creating no less excitement among readers and collectors alike, than the regular monthly issues.

Among one of Playboy’s best loved College Girl models is Davin Lexen who appears on the cover of College Girls magazine March/April 2005.

Wearing just a multicolored student style scarf, Davin hides the real voluptuous curves that lie beneath and can be explored in full throughout the glossy pages of this issue of Playboy College Girls which includes the girls of the Atlantic Coast Conference.

 Probably the most iconic Playboy bunny girl in history, along with the most recognized movie star throughout the world, Marilyn Monroe certainly left a mark on Hugh Hefner and his Playboy publication.

When Hefner first conjured up the idea of a magazine for men he wanted his first issue to be filled with Marilyn Monroe and nothing else.

The magazine, which had its debut in December 1953, only had a print run of 54,000 copies, and had a lasting and collectable First Lady on the cover, in the form of Monroe.

To attract people to the magazine Hefner bought the rights to a nude photo of Marilyn Monroe and so the Playboy Empire was born.To attract people to the magazine Hefner bought the rights to a nude photo of Marilyn Monroe and so the Playboy Empire was born.Since the original copy only sold 54,000 copies, they are extremely rare now a days and sell for in excess of $5,000 each, if they can be located.
