To: pml1@yahoogroups.com From: Mark Tomlonson Date: Fri, 12 Sep 2003 09:23:49 -0400 Subject: [PML1] CC: Astrid Schulz With the challenge she has on her face, Astrid Schulz' centerfold (September 1964) might as well be titled "You must be this tall to get on this ride". It's still a playful, non-threatening look and keeps the mood of the centerfold light and airy. I can't imagine a pose that would be more flattering to Astrid. This one really shows up the fullness of her figure. Not only does it flatter her breasts, but also the curve of her legs is really brought front and center. We are also given the opportunity to delight in her torso and stomach. The left three-quarters of the centerfold is an interesting play between the circle formed by the bedstead and the triangles on the left (suggested by the pillows) and the triangles on the right (defined by her legs). Nothing very profound here, but it works very well. Surprisingly, the right quarter of the picture has very little going on. Perhaps because the pose works so well it was "misfit" into the proportions of the centerfold. It's a problem that only shows up when you look at the picture instead of Astrid, something that most of us probably don't do.
