Pin-Up Spotlight

As a kid i remember seeing several Bridgette Bardot films on T.V. Her films used to drive me crazy because she would get naked and then be "interrupted" right before i (the viewer) got to see her body. She would cover up with towels, pillows,and guitars, whatever she happened to be near. I would always think "you damn landlord you ruined it!"

She used to spend half her movies "covering" up.

This picture below is a very young photo of her brunette. My God...

Pin ups PART 3





Dita von Tease.

My wife and i went to a pin-up convention in 2001 at Rosemont just outside Chicago.We tend to avoid modern pin-ups(to much blond and plastic) but love meeting and getting autographs of vintage models and bunnys.Walking around we saw Dita sitting alone behind a fold up table.No line,no bodyguards...just Dita.We vaguely recognized her from fetish magazines like Fetish, Marquis, and Skin Two.We walked over and couldn't believe how nice and accommodating she was.She signed a B&W glossy for us and even posed for a picture with us.She is now a modern Bettie and has become the dream of many males and females alike.We caught one of her feather fan shows years later at an after party for Marilyn Manson.As she was exiting the stage she looked at me and my wife and smiled.I like to think she remembered us from that 10 minute talk years before.

Pin ups PART 2

My first pin-up pick was a no brainer,Bettie Page. Hell, because of her i got into pin-up and saw the art and beauty that modern models and dime-a-dozen fake boobs,fake blonds couldn't hold a candle to. My next choice seemed to way heavier on my mind.Dita von Tease or Marilyn Monroe. Dita is a world class beauty, some even say the Bettie Page of our generation. Ah.. but Marilyn is a household name. Shes inspired song,art,film, and fashion.But is she a pin-up? Hmmm.This decision was pretty much made up when new photos surfaced of Marilyn.Dita will be my next pin-up pick but here's Norma Jean-






This last photo is my new favorite.Marilyn with no make-up.Love it!
