To: pml1@yahoogroups.com Subject: [PML1] CC: Nancy Harwood From: Mark Tomlonson Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2003 09:42:16 -0500 In Nancy Harwood's centerfold (February 1968) she's on the sofa, about to thank us for the Valentine's chocolates. Where this centerfold dives to the mat for me is with Nancy's aggressive tan lines. I don't know the story. Perhaps the order came to the photographers "Use Nancy in a Valentine pose. We need it tomorrow." Or maybe Nancy showed up at the shoot and the photographers said, "My but you've gotten some sun since the test shots". At any rate, in this pose Nancy's curves disappear. The bikini top she was wearing when she got the tan left a broad white stripe across her chest that makes her look broader and flatter than she really is. I would have tried another pose, but that may not have been possible. Another big failing for me is Nancy's expression. It's fine, even desirable for a high school graduation, but it doesn't work in this setting. While it may be true that I stand more of a chance of eating the chocolates than Nancy, I don't like to be reminded of that so blatantly. The setting seems off. I think I would have put Nancy on a plain sofa with patterned wallpaper.
