If you are anything like us, you did not attend GQ's gala last week to celebrate its 50th year, but you did receive the 50th anniversary issue in the mail this week. The magazine has several cover options, and celebrates the 50 most stylish men of the past 50 years. There are 10 different covers (collect them all!) featuring sartorial icons such as Al Pacino, Muhammad Ali, Sean Connery, Michael Jordan, Paul Newman,  Jack Nicholson,Tom Brady, Johnny Depp, Robert Redford and JFK (which is already selling on eBay for upwards of $10 a pop!). See a slideshow of the 50 of the past 50 at gq.com. It's a fun read or a good study break when things get a little slow at the office. We've got a few of our favorite style icons after the jump.    

We love a good cause, so we were happy to learn that with this issue GQ has gotten involved in charitable causes, launching The Gentlemen's Fund. It will also involve the GQ Mobile text-messaging service and in-store events, reports today's NYT. John Legend has donated his time and reputation to be the spokesman, and will encourage people to make donations online, to buy merchandise from participating brands and from eBay auctions. All proceeds are to benefit five organizations in areas like education, men’s health and the environment.
