In Lisa Matthews' centerfold (April 1990) three of these American icons are brought front and center. Is there any Playmate with a better smile than Lisa's? She bubbles over even when she's in a more serious mood than what we see here. A lot of her shots play up her athletic side. We have come to watch her play on the neighborhood softball team (after all, that's her own bat she's holding), not vice versa. Lisa is set in front of and among a wide variety of almost 45-degree lines. The ribs on the car running board, the trees in the background and the tucking on the interior of the car door are the most prominent. Her left arm and the baseball bat are arranged to continue those lines. I'm not sure that was the best choice. It gives her a forced and artificial pose that contrasts too sharply with her ebullient smile. The pose also makes her figure less attractive than some other poses, but it's not a disaster by any means. The warm color scheme of oranges and reds was a good choice for this warm-hearted blonde.
