Playboy Magazine, November 1999 Issue (Mia St. John Cover)

This is a standard-sized consumer periodical magazine, specifically the November 1999 issue of Playboy. The cover features professional boxer Mia St. John, depicted wearing red boxing gloves and trunks against a vibrant red background. The masthead 'PLAYBOY' is printed in white at the top. Notable typographic features include headlines for a Jesse Ventura interview and the 'Sex in Cinema '99' feature. The magazine is constructed with a glossy paper cover and a perfect-bound spine. A UPC barcode is visible in the lower-right corner with a printed original price of $4.95. Condition-wise, the magazine shows moderate wear typical of its age; there is visible creasing across the top-right corner of the cover and some slight edge wear and blunting at the corners. There is also a vertical indentation or crease running down the right side near the barcode. The color remains saturated, and the graphic layout is characteristic of late 20th-century publication design. This specific issue is historically significant within the publication's run for featuring a professional female athlete on the cover during the height of the 1990s boxing era.
