Top Ten Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition Covers

Its hard to believe that Sports Illustrated has been issuing their annual Swimsuit Edition since way back in 1964. Spanning decades, they covered beauties from Kathy Ireland to Heidi Klum, along with a whole gaggle of others, launching some into career stardom. (See the aforementioned Kathy Ireland.) Landing on the cover almost guaranteed future work with a higher paycheck. So for the ones who made the cover, we here at Slickster solute you. Here is our Top Ten Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition Covers. *Note, this list was a true challenge to make, but it had to be done.*
