Modern Man (subtitled "The Picture Magazine for Men" / "The Man's Picture Magazine" / "The Adult Picture Magazine") was a monthly men's magazine founded in 1951 and run until 1976.[1] Predating Playboy, Modern Man focused on items of interest to adult men, with an emphasis on soft-core pornography, sex, humor, automobiles and popular culture. It featured photographs of many well-known models and actresses, including Marilyn Monroe, Pat Sheehan, Bambi Hamilton, June Blair, Tara Thomas, Dolores Reed,[2] Jayne Mansfield, and Mamie Van Doren, as well as questionable look-alikes.
