In Claudia Jennings' centerfold (November 1969) she's about to remove 
that last bit of clothing before we join her in the bed.

I like the parts of this centerfold. I like the look on Claudia's face. 
There's a great deal of invitation, but no surrender. We haven't seduced 
her; she's decided to spend time with us. Her eyes dance, and there is 
no question that we'll enjoy the time we spend. I like how the action 
has been stopped just short of full exposure. It's a limit we have the 
Postal Authorities to thank, but here, unlike in some other centerfolds, 
we hardly notice we're up against them. I like how Claudia makes a 
gentle arc to the left of the frame, and how the wall decorations 
provide a sense of balance.

Yet this has never been one of my favorites. I don't think the pose is 
very flattering to Claudia. I also think her hairstyle is wrong because 
it hides and obscures her eyes when Claudia deserves to have them 
brought out. Lastly, I think her face is too dark. There are ways, as we 
have seen, of setting a Playmate in a dark room while highlighting her face.
