Very Good +
Description
Chicago: HMH Pblishing Co, 1957. Magazines. Very Good +. The uncommon June 1957 issue of Playboy, featuring, famously, the first appearance of the short story "The Fly". Authored by George Langelaan, the short story would go on to inspire the 1958 film (the Vincent Price vehicle) and the excellent 1986 David Cronenberg re-make. This copy is clean and crisp and easily VG+ to Near Fine. The centerfold is loose but unmarred and there is a small, light crease near the front panel's upper tip. Otherwise well-preserved and very presentable.
