The value of a *Playboy* #1 issue varies significantly depending on the year of publication. The 1953 issue is by far the most valuable, with a used sold value of $1410.11 [1]. In contrast, the 1954 issue is worth $161 used [2], while the later issues from 1988 through 2009 are valued much lower, ranging from $63.09 to $99.95 used [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]. The year of publication is the primary factor driving the difference in these resale prices.
