Playboy Features – Playmate Pillow Fight

In February 1963 we noted that no picture story provided a bigger kick (for our readers and ourself) than the Playmate Holiday House Party in our Eighth Anniversary issue. Following a full dozen of Playboy’s prettiest Playmates on a weekend run of the Chicago Playboy Mansion was no snap job; the shooting ran through three days and nights during which our photo staff logged more than 2000 color shots. Although many of the scenes were planned in advance, our alert lensmen kept their eyes open (who wouldn’t?) while the girls were “resting” between takes.
