Oh ...that too. I forgot about Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues. Yup, bought some of those too.

Yes, but all those are usually contemporaries, not from the time of our grandparents etc.

The only reason I even have an inkling of such models is from any 'period' Hollywood movies usually around various wars, or prison based films.



Though if I'm being honest, it wasn't possible to pin-up such things at my parent's, and I didn't move out until my mid 20's and by that time I kind of outgrew that stage of my life.

The exact movie I was thinking of. As it was a cool idea in how to show the progression of time in the film, going from pin-up to pin-up.

No one will ever again understand the historical difficulties just to see attractive women.
What's posted any hour on Instgram would have sold for an absolute mint.

Marilyn = the lady you date and introduce to your friends and family
Betty = the chick you actually want
This is probably why I own the Blitzway Marilyn but the Page statue would be too spicy.

Yes, but not by the average person, only in nerd circles, probably.

There's a good movie about Bettie Page from 2005: The Notorious Bettie Page.

Those are some decent numbers in this poll. It'll be fun to revisit as these pieces get released over the next year or two, to see if they hold up.
