About The Animal Covers of Playboy Weekly Japan Magazine

First launched in 1966, Japan's Weekly Playboy became known for its extraordinary covers, transforming female models into surreal combinations of animals, people and everyday objects through elaborate costumes, body painting, creative props and carefully staged photography. Photographed primarily by Yuji Hayata, these playful and experimental covers blended humour, eroticism and visual illusion, creating a distinctive artistic identity that set the magazine apart. This beautifully curated book brings together the majority of the original animal-themed covers published between 1966 and 1971, alongside rare behind-the-scenes photographs offering a glimpse into the creative process behind these unusual images. A fascinating addition to any collection, The Animal Covers of Weekly Playboy Japan is perfect for enthusiasts of Japanese photography, vintage magazines, graphic design, fashion imagery and retro pop culture. It offers a unique insight into an experimental period of magazine design and visual storytelling.
