Dog Shoots His Master in Neck VALLEJO, March 12 (Universal Services) – Frank Rogers of this city was
shot in the neck and wounded by his dog near here today. Rogers was on a hunting trip. When close to a ledge he lowered his

Overlapping article: Los Angeles If you bought a
copy of the first issue of Life magazine the day it was put on the newsstand in November, 1936, it cost you ten
cents. Today, if you could find a copy of that first issue in a bookstore, you’d have to pay anywhere from $8.50 to $15
for it, depending on its condition. In other cities, volume one, number one of Life sells for as much as $25. But Playboy
magazine, much newer and much less an American tradition than Life, brings prices on the booming second-hand magazine market
that make Life’s seem a bargain. A copy of the first issue of Playboy, which sold for 50 cents in December, 1953, now
brings $135 to $150 here and up to $350 on the east coast.
