Playboy January 1986

COVER STORY Not long after Art Director Tom Staebler and Managing Art Director Kerig Pope, designers of this month's cover, asked Andy Warhol to apply his considerable talents to it, Staebler met Warhol in Chicago. "I've got bunnies on the brain," said the sultan of chic. And with that he returned to his New York studio and began tuning rabbit ears. The result is our holiday cover, a stylish collision of Warhol's hand and PLAYBOY'S timeless Rabbit Head. 5 PLAYBILL 11 DEAR PLAYBOY 15 PLAYBOY AFTER HOURS 33 SPORTS BY DAN JENKINS 35 MEN BY ASA BABER 37 WOMEN BY CYNTHIA HEIMEL 39 AGAINST THE WIND CRAIG VETTER 43 THE PLAYBOY ADVISOR 47 DEAR PLAYMATES 51 THE PLAYBOY FORUM 58 VIEWPOINT: SEXUAL MCCARTHYISM HUGH M.
