Subject: [PML1] CC: Cheryl Bachman

In Cheryl Bachman's centerfold (October 1991) we meet her on the tennis 
court. I'll resist writing a sentence here that plays off the words 
"love match". The centerfold isn't nearly that smarmy.

This is an essay in black and white. Only the tennis balls, the red in 
her sweatbands and Cheryl herself stray from the color scheme. There are 
dark greens and blues, but they're rendered dark enough to call them black.

The net forms the geometric basis for the centerfold, with Cheryl's 
stance breaking up the monotony. A subtle diagonal runs from her right 
shoulder strap down to the near-phallic tennis racquet. The raspberry 
colored tennis balls and the slight twisting of her feet add a sense of 
stability and weight to the bottom of the frame.

It was a wise choice to feature Cheryl's bottom so prominently, as was 
the decision to go with this expression. Framing it with her lovely hair 
and the white sunvisor draw much-deserved attention to the best part of 
her anatomy.

I saw a non-nude poster of this same shot in K-Mart. It was just as 
sexy. A tribute, I think, to the inherent appeal of this attractive 
young woman.

Cyber Club Portfolio Photo I like better than the Centerfold: #39. An 
entirely different look, and not centerfold material, but I like it.
