Original October 1989 “Bold Back to Campus” issue of Playboy magazine featuring Julie McCullough on the cover and in a full pictorial, a candid Playboy Interview with Keith Richards, and the “Girls of the Southeastern Conference” college pictorial. Inside, college women “talk straight about campus sex,” there is a Playboy Collection modern‑living feature, a Playboy Pigskin Preview, and fiction plus humor and a Geena Davis “No Questions” piece, with a Carlton cigarettes ad on the back cover. This copy shows moderate reading and storage wear: cover rubbing and small creases, edge and spine wear, and some light soiling; interior pages are age‑toned with normal handling but appear complete with no intentional cutouts.
