TREASURE HUNTER
She's the pause that refreshes.

This Technicolor lithograph shows Arline Hunter, who was a Playboy centerfold in August 1954 and an actress on television and in movies. Her first brush with show business was in the 1948 erotic reel Apple Knockers and the Coke. Yeah. That's a real title. And a literal one, too—the reel shows a topless Hunter suggestively playing with an apple and drinking a Coke. It's available for the moment on YouTube as an age restricted upload and you can watch it in all its grainy goodness there, or just get the gist from the photos below. If you think she looks a bit like Marilyn Monroe you aren't the only one. The resemblance helped propel Hunter to recognition, and in fact her Playboy appearance was what you might call a revisitation of Monroe's famous centerfold from the previous year, featuring similar poses and a similar red velvet background. The above image comes from Champion Line and dates from 1952.

INVESTED IN SILVER
Bad news: the dye job was expensive. Good news: she has the same hair color today for free.


An unidentified model appears above on two 1965 Technicolor lithographs, the first of which, from A. Fox Corp., is called “How Nice,” and the second of which, from KLM, is called “Silver Siren.” The model sports striking silver hair in both, and we've noticed this trend has gotten pretty big of late, so these serve as a reminder that, once again, your grandmother beat you to it.

SCHEER MONROE
So I found these awesome leopardskin drapes on sale. What do you think? Too much?

The incomparable Marilyn Monroe, wearing see-though lingerie, stars on the above Technicolor lithograph titled “Vivacious Marilyn.” The image was originally shot by acclaimed Hungarian lensman Laszlo Willinger in 1947. Most sources say 1949, but we can confirm 1947 because we've seen another frame from this leopard series used on a 1947 Sunoco calendar. However, the above lithograph wasn't printed until 1955, when the negative fell into the hands of the good people at A. Scheer Co. and they said, “She's sheer! We're Scheer! It's a match made in heaven!” A. Scheer made another print of one of Willinger's other famed Monroe images which we'll show you a bit later. In the meantime, we offer the bonus image of Monroe on the phone for no reason at all. You can see more lithos of Hollywood's greatest star wearing assorted bits of almost nothing here.

NATURAL REFLECTION
Mirror mirror on the wall, who’s the barest of them all?


This Technicolor lithograph is entitled “Golden Reflections” and features a model who looks familiar to us—she could be a burlesque dancer or popular centerfold, but we can’t place her. The only thing of which we’re sure is the copyright date—1959. Know who she is? Drop us a line.

PLEASANT DREAM
Straight from the best part of the subconscious.


Today's Technicolor lithograph is a bit different than the others, featuring a border on three sides and a smaller image than typical. But what a nice image. It's titled “Dream Girl” and comes from the U.I. Co. of New York. We have no date, but we're guessing by the hairstyle and general model type that it's from 1955 or a bit earlier. We have no model ID.

ZSA ZSA VOOM
If you're going to be a movie star you better look the part.

Above, a beautiful Technicolor lithograph of Hungarian actress Zsa Zsa Gabor clad in two of her favorite luxe accessories—fur and jewels. Gabor once said, “Don’t ever buy imitation furs, because that’s worse than death.” Times change, of course. The photo is entitled simply “Movie Star,” and she perfectly personifies the 1950's version of that concept here.

CLASSICAL WALTZ
She's enough to make your head spin.


This Technicolor lithograph of a model in boldly checked pants stars Marilyn Waltz, who under that name was Playboy magazine's April 1955 centerfold, but also modeled as Margaret Scott. This print is the actual centerfold shot but slightly cropped. It's titled “A Sultry Miss” and appeared later than the magazine, we think. Probably around 1958.

HOWARD HUGE
This ain't exactly her first rodeo.


Since we brought up a buxom burlesque dancer yesterday, we thought a return to the subject was appropriate. Here you see a Technicolor lithograph of Betty Howard, who was aka Betty "Blue Eyes" Howard, but who also called herself The Girl Who Has Everything. And by everything she meant boobs—forty inches worth. Howard was a star by the late 1940s, and hit her stride during the 1950s, dancing all over the U.S. and in Cuba. This particular shot is entitled “Strictly from Vegas,” and we can only assume she was a major presence there at some point. You may remember Howard led off our collection of vintage burlesque dancers back in 2010. If you haven't seen it, or are perhaps up for a revisit, check it here.

THOROUGHLY MODERN JOANN
At least she made her one shot memorable.


The above Technicolor print features American model Joann Burgess in an image from 1960 that was also featured on the cover of Modern Man magazine in January 1961. We looked everywhere, but we’re unable to find any record of Burgess apart from the two examples you see here. But at least her one appearance tends to stick in the mind, which is why it's appropriate it's titled “Memories.” See more Technicolor lithos here.

BABY TAKE A BOW
The woods are lovely, dark, and deep.


Above, a Technicolor lithograph, entitled “Aim To Please,” starring Playboy model Mariyln Hanold looking for something to kill with her longbow and quiver of arrows. Does she look familiar? Possibly it's because we featured her before, from a similar looking woodland session. This is dated 1959 and comes from Corp. A. Fox.
