With its immediate US success, England’s controversial magazine of beautiful women, intelligent journalism and intimate revelations had arrived. The covers of PENTHOUSE Magazine have included celebrities and beautiful, art-inspired photography. Even today, the magazine continues to chronicle the libido of a changing nation and the pop culture that shapes it. Made famous worldwide for its fearless approach to sexuality and its unabashed support of those rebelling from the norm and defining their own identity, Penthouse stands as the greatest men’s brand in history.
