Begun in 1956 by Excellent Publications, Inc. as The Gent, 

it was one of a number of "skin magazine" startups at the time aimed at male readers in imitation of Playboyand hoping for similar success.

 It was soon prosecuted for obscenity by the United States Postal Service, but was found not obscene at that time. 

It continued to be a market for popular fiction through the 1970s, 80s (then put out by Dugent Publishing Corp.) and 90s, publishing pieces such as "Strawberry Spring" by Stephen King.

In later years, it was owned by the Princeton Media Group, publisher of other similar magazines such as Oui at which time it was derided by some as

a "working-class Playboy wannabe," and overshadowed by the publicity surrounding Hustler publisher Larry FLINT
