The top ten out of more than 500 Penthouse Pets
It is difficult to set up a real sequence for these models. The first problem is that there are more than 500 of them. The second is that the style changed and the men are attracted to other types of women with each passing decade.
Penthouse magazine has ventured into other areas, such as movies: the founder of Penthouse, Bob Guccione used money from his own fortune to finance the 1979 Caligula movie with Malcolm McDowell, Helen Mirren, Peter O’Toole and others. Despite the heavy negative critics the movie received, it’s considered to be in the “cult classic” category.
