The Playboy Book Club
advertisement in Questar magazine, June 1980
Things were pretty tame back then.
Phenomena: A Book of Wonders: observations on the supernatural
The Girls of Playboy: a rather chaste clunker first published in 1973
Bruce Jenner's Guide to the Olympics: thanks to Jimmy Carter, the U.S. did not participate in the 1980 games, lessening the value of this manual
Cruel Shoes: Steve Martin was the epitome of late 70s humor: very hip, very ironic, very sarcastic, very overrated
In the fine print: The Visual Dictionary of Sex, which was a distant also-ran title for those book clubs that couldn't get an agreement to offer The Joy of Sex.
