Monday, January 20, 1964: Sports Illustrated's first swimsuit issue
Babette March is pictured on the magazine's cover; inside is a Caribbean travel guide, with five pages of swimsuit photos. (Note: The February 21, 1955 issue showed Betty di Bugnano on the cover, but the 1964 issue was the first of what would become the magazine's annual showcase.)
