In Lenna Sjooblom's centerfold (November 1972) she's playing dress-up 
in front of a mirror. Perhaps we can talk her into acting out other 
fantasies as well.

The mirror is a staple in pin-up photography for the obvious reason 
that we get two views of the model for the price of one. Holding this 
shot back from centerfold stardom is that the same pose that knocks 
your socks off when viewed form the back is about average from the 
front. Not Playboy centerfold average, but normal woman average. 
That's not bad, but unusual for Playboy.

This is a minor quibble in light of Lenna's expression. If we act out 
other fantasies it will be because she's already primed the pump. 
When you put a beautiful woman in a pin-up that's this ready, it's 
easy to create a winner.

Can you find the Bunny in the centerfold? It may be my overactive 
imagination, but I see the ears in the mirror and the head in the 
window and Lenna's right leg to make Playboy's trademark.

I really should be paying more attention to Lenna. She's worth much 
more than a passing glance. Legs, bottom and a back like that are 
truly outstanding.
