Couldn't find a transparent image of the entire machine, so the backglass will have to suffice. I know it's small, but I couldn't find any other suitable pictures of either the backglass or the table proper.

As one would expect, this game commemorates the 35th anniversary of ''Playboy'' magazine with a poolside party at Hugh Hefner's Playboy mansion. Shoot up the ramps to enter the Mansion, then play with the animals in the Mansion Zoo for a score multiplier. When you're ready, head on over to the pool patio, where you can take the 35th anniversary playmates to the Photo Shoot and earn a Special. While 1989 Playmate of the Year Kimberley Conrad watches from the playfield, lock two balls into the Grotto for multiball, and try to shoot the ramps for the Jackpot.

Cynics would say this table was simply an excuse to put scantily-clad women in a pinball game, and they'd be right -- in the opinion of most players, ''Playboy 35th Anniversary'' is a boring table with shallow rules, a game that relies on the license over any sort of depth or play value.
