Rare Bunny Yeager Color NegativeTransparency Linda Lovelace Unseen Photo Shoot
Item History & Price
ITEM: You are bidding on an original 2 1/4" color film camera negative transparency on Kodak safety film, taken in 1964 by Bunny Yeager. This shot is a unique to this collection previously unseen portrait of Susan Boreman, AKA Linda Lovelace; who filmed the stag film classic Deep Throat in Miami in 1972. The porn stars Svengali like husband Chuck Traynor owned a strip club in North Miami and was in Yeager's orbit; a hanger-on who would bring hopeful models from his club to model ...for the photographer. This would appear to be from the 1964 Yeager and husband Bud Irwin stag film Sextet, where on IMDb. Lovelace is listed as appearing as an uncredited "Girl At Party" extra. As such there are several cast photos featuring Linda Lovelace and a couple of color portrait transparencies such as this frame. This is really just a unique pop culture oddity to be sure.
