I would say that 1974-1993 were the peak years with the early 80's being the best years for great playmates. After the year 2000 the pickings get pretty slim.

Anyone who fell in love with Playmates at first sight must have be a boy at puberty,
so there is nothing for it but to favor '80s Playmates deeply.
Please tell me the Playmates after '00 who are similar to my type.

Great thread!

One of my favorite things about it is the diversity of opinion. I've seen some girls listed in top fives or even as number one that I barely gave a second look, and I'm sure not everyone will agree with my list. That's the fun of it.

1. Alana Soares
2. Lauren Anderson
3. Cynthia Myers
4. Anna Nicole Smith
5. Patricia Farinelli

6. Elaine Reynolds
7. Justine Greiner
8. Lindsey Vuolo
9. Tiffany Taylor
10. Candy Loving

11. Bettie Page
12. Rhonda Adams
13. Regina Deutinger
14. Petra Verkaik
15. Courtney Culkin

16. Shannon Tweed
17. Carol Imhof
18. Victoria Valentino
