Playboy originals, part 1

Playboy has been known for years as the king of nudie mags but actually had the tamest cartoons (relatively) and the least sexist. It might have something to do with them having being able to get better cartoonists the highest budget and production values and paying more. Recently while browsing the Heritage Auctions site, I ended up climbing down the rabbit hole (Playboy bunny, rabbit hole-- I just made a funny!) and this is what I found.
