- The Cover Price: Should read DM 7.90 (Deutsche Mark). If it says Euro, it is a later reprint (and less valuable).
- The Spine: The spine of Issue #23 is unique. Unlike the other issues which had a black spine, #23 famously used a dark red spine with white text. This was a printing error that makes it stand out on a shelf.
- The Poster: Every issue came with a centerfold poster. In #23, the poster was a double-sided A3 sheet. One side features the cover model. The other side features a BMW E30 (a car model), not a person. Why? The publisher had an advertising deal that fell through, so they printed the car to fill the page.
- Seconds 1-3: Mutual visual acknowledgment. Does the other person look up? Do they hold your gaze?
- Seconds 4-7: The approach or the angle. You move closer, or they reposition their bag.
- Seconds 8-15: The opening line. Not a pickup line, but a contextual thread: “That’s a great book—I’ve been meaning to read it.”
- Seconds 16-23: The reciprocity test. If they ask a question back, engage with open body language, or smile genuinely (the Duchenne smile), the “23” is successful. If they step back, put in headphones, or give a one-word answer, the flirt is dead.
