Fans of Playgirl know that many of the models featured have appeared multiple times in the magazine. Many begin as 'discoveries' then end up as man of the month. Some start out modeling with female models for a fantasy series, then get a layout of their own. Not many however, have appeared a fully nude photo spread over several decades.
I think the late great Dirk Shafer may hold the record, appearing first as man of the month in 1990. 22 years later in 2012, Dirk returned for a new shoot. Although he appeared several times in-between, the 2012 marked his return to the magazine after almost 20 years. Model Marc Hampton didn't quite make 22 years, but it was 16 years between appearances.
Marc first appeared in a one page ad for his layout in the April 1974 issue. He appeared the next month, as the magazine's discovery for May. Marc appeared on the magazine's cover 16 years later for the February 1990's Valentine issue.
When I recently saw a shot of Marc, I was inspired to learn more. There was something so hot about his sexy face, and something so familiar as well. The 26 year old Marc, who appeared in 1974, looks a little like a young Sam Elliot. The 42 year old Marc, from his 1990 issue, looks a little like Josh Brolin and his father James. He also in some images, looks a little like Arnold Schwarzenegger.
