To: pml1@yahoogroups.com From: Mark Tomlonson Date: Fri, 03 Oct 2003 10:12:26 -0400 Subject: [PML1] CC: Jean Cannon In Jean Cannon's centerfold (October 1961) she's blending in with the aspens. Maybe there's sex on the agenda, maybe not. In the meantime, we'll just enjoy the view of nature. Rumour has it that Jean posed in part because her husband said she was too ugly to be a Playmate. In the words of that great social commentator Bugs Bunny, "What a maroon!" Jean has nothing less than a stellar figure and it is well served in this pose. Her good luck in the draw from the gene pool accounts for a good bit of the 4.0 erotic rating of this centerfold. The rest comes from the photographer's skill in lighting. Jean's skin and the tree back blend together to create a unified whole. Her tan lines are brought out just enough to really play up her nudity. I love what the light does to her shoulders as well. This is an extremely classy and attractive picture, but it's not fine art, it's erotica. Jean seems to be suspended in air, but that's not a distraction. Her expression holds the picture back however. She seems like in the back of her mind she just might believe her husband's lie.
