Playboy Magazine December 1999 Issue featuring Naomi Campbell

This is a vintage December 1999 edition of Playboy magazine, marketed as the 'Gala Christmas Issue.' The front cover features supermodel Naomi Campbell in a winter-themed photoshoot, wearing a white bikini and hat while holding a telephone. The cover design utilizes bold typography in red, white, and gold, highlighting features such as an interview with Ben Affleck and content regarding the 'Search for Playmate 2000.' Mentioned contributors include notable figures like Wynton Marsalis, LeRoy Neiman, and Troy Aikman. Physically, the magazine appears to be in reasonable condition for its age, though there is a visible white rectangular packet or sticker intentionally placed over a portion of the cover's central image. There is slight edge wear and corner blunting visible on the top right and left. The colors remain vibrant. This issue is historically significant within pop culture as it marked the transition into the new millennium for the publication. These magazines were printed on standard glossy paper stock with staple binding, common for mass-market periodicals of the late 1990s.
