RIP - Bettie Page

Bettie Page
b. : 04/22/23
d. : 12/11/08
. Bettie Page, whom some consider the quintessence of voluptuousness, passed away at the spry age of 85. Originally a typist by trade, serendipity changed her career, first to a 50's pin-up girl, and then to a barrier-breaking provocatively-posing model, incredibly never with any nudity. . The worth1000 image above, while flawed (purists know her name isn't spelled with a "Y"), shows some of those controversial pics. They're tame by today's standards; nevertheless, try not to drool on the monitor. .. For the aesthetically-inclined, her measurements are listed as having been 36-23-36½, and she was Miss January 1955 in Playboy. For you trivia nuts, Miss February that year was much more famous and was....?? (No, not Marilyn Monroe.)
