Playboy 1996 Pin-up Calendar Page - April (Elke Jeinsen)

This item consists of a single page from a Playboy wall calendar dated to April 1996. The top section features a color photograph of Elke Jeinsen, identified in stylized text as 'Playboy's Playmate for April'. She is depicted with blonde hair, wearing a pink robe and heels. Below the image is the calendar grid for April 1996, which includes recurring appearances of the Playboy bunny logo. To the left of the calendar grid is an advertisement for 'Cementville Auto Parts, Inc.' located in Sellersburg, Indiana. The page is constructed of semi-gloss paper, typical of mass-produced promotional calendars of the late 20th century. The item shows significant signs of wear and age, including a prominent horizontal crease across the middle, visible curling at the bottom edges, and minor yellowing. A white square sticker or packet is adhered directly to the center of the image, obscuring part of the subject. The top edge retains the metal wire spiral binding, which is slightly bent. The overall state indicates it was likely used in a commercial environment like a garage or shop.
