Jim didn't do the normal celebrity Playgirl cover up. The September 1974 issue of Playgirl featured a four-page foldout of the former Cleveland Browns football player-turned-actor Jim Brown. Sure, he could have tried to top himself in Playgirl, but really, why mess with perfection? He already had - not for Playgirl, but for the famous 1972 Cosmopolitan shoot, which featured a hirsute Reynolds naked (his left arm strategically placed), reclining on a bear-skin rug, a cigarette dangling from his mouth.
In 1981, everyone's main mustachioed stud Burt Reynolds appeared on the cover of Playgirl and gave an interview, which included the topic: 'His Love Affair With Sally Is Not Over.' It would be one year later.
