Subject: [PML1] CC: Kristine Winder

In Kristine Winder's centerfold (October 1977) she's posed in a 
Victorian attic. Yep, she's posed.

This isn't a bad centerfold, I guess. My main reaction to it was to flip 
to the Party Jokes on the back. Kristine isn't helped by the nearly 
non-existent hairstyle that plays up a mousy brown color and formless 
'do. Nor is she helped by the blank, semi-bored look on her face.

The setting is up to Playboy's standards of set dressing, but no more. 
Her pose is uninspired, and not that good a fit for her. Judith Reisman 
would say the dolls make this centerfold child pornography, proving that 
having a Ph.D. is not a guarantee of either intelligence or common sense.

The alternate photo, on the other hand, along with a couple of photos in 
her feature hint at the passion and beauty that lies within this 
gorgeous young woman. I don't know why that passion didn't make it into 
the centerfold. Maybe it was that seventies malaise, or just a bad day. 
Maybe Kristine and her centerfold photographer just didn't click. As a 
viewer/consumer I shouldn't have to worry about those things.

A couple of the jokes were O.K.
