Monroe was the first person to model on the cover and the centrefold of Playboy magazine - making her one of the first truly marketable stars.

The first edition of Playboy, released in 1953, featured a centrefold photo of Monroe, originally shot in 1949 - an image which came to symbolise the early days of the magazine.

In the same year, Reynolds courted controversy by doing a near-nude centrefold, a move he regretted.

A former Playmate centrefold has plunged to her death with her seven-year-old son from the window of a New York City hotel.

In her short life she also made a string of centrefold appearances as “playmate of the month” in Playboy magazine and had three husbands and five children.
