January 1955 Playboy: covergirl Bettie Page, shot by Bunny Yeager
Happy holidays to everyone that stopped by Burlesque Seattle Press or read my column this year, and to all the subscribers who get the special privilege of occasional first draft typos delivered right to their email boxes. Many thanks for finding this site, and for sharing my love of burlesque. Many thanks also to those I’ve interviewed or corresponded with this year, and to all my photographer friends that have generously shared their work.
As a special holiday treat, I’ve chosen Bettie Page’s January 1955 Playboy cover. This was the first pinup photo I ever trolled Ebay for back around 1998; it was the first of many, and kicked off a lifelong obsession that naturally, found its way to burlesque. Happy holidays!
