So, my grandpa was a subscriber to playboy since 1977. He had an extensive collection, each issue dating back to the first he recevied in october of '77 (including such issues as the Pac 10 college edition and some other specialty editions). This adds up to around 400 some odd issues of the Playboy magazine. It also includes calendars, placemats, coffee mugs, and other merchandise. My grandpa always had a sense of huor and i loved him so much, and he always received the magazine each months in a black sleeve which you could not see through. My grandma and mom knew of his collection and he was always excited when a new issue arrived. He recently passed away (september 2002) and left me his whole collection in his will. I was stunned, i thought my mom was kidding when she finally decided to tell me this afternoon.
After the short drive to the sunset storage, we arrived at my grandparents storage garage. After popping it open and sliding the metal door up, i walked into a room of junk. My mom and grandma pointed to it and told me not to open it, and that it wasnt appropriate for me to have them at that age. When i turn 18 i will get everything. I looked inside and saw all the stuff. It was insane, i was so excited and thought my grandpa was awesome for leaving me such a collection. I knew how much it meant to him, and for him to leave it to me means alot.
Being the dirty little perv i am, i had to sneak an issue or two. When my mom and grandma were talking over a cigarette break and i was inside sifting around i snuck an issue, it is good stuff. The proof below

Sorry to hear he passed away. :(
Enjoy the collection in a few years. Make sure you subscribe and get all the back issues so you can have every Playboy printed since 77. :p

Squeeky that has got to be worth a small fortune, serious collectors items there bud. Whatever you do, don't even open them, however tempting it may be :) and DEFINATELY DON'T splash any substances on them thats likely to stick the pages together :brow:

oh squeeky, when i was 14 my parents would have NEVER let me have any of those EVER.... they would probabley burn them or sell them on ebay....or hide them somewhere really secure.

my dad has always had tittie calendars, when i was like 10, i don't really remember, since i'm only 15 now. but a few years ago, i stole one out of the garage, and then he found it in my room. so he was like, uhhh, that's cool if you have it i guess, nothing wrong with some boobs, just don't tell your mom

You should write a letter to playboy telling them your story, maybe they'll publish it or interview you or something :)
Its really cool that you and your grandpa got along so well.
