Playboy January 1988

COVER STORY
The holidays are a time for puttin' on the ritz, so this month's cover is decked out with a painting by artist Robert Hoppe, a legend for his glamorous art-deco cityscapes. Hoppe's version of the high life, Playboy style, recalls the days of the Ziegfeld Follies, but his dramatic vision is timeless. If you can't find the Rabbit right away, we suggest you ask a friend to drive.
