The choice was one of the first indications Yeager had her pulse on what was considered the height of female glamour, and her decades long career as a model and pin up photographer would see her join Turner as one of those who defined American female beauty in the 20th century.Statuesque and with a beaming smile, Yeager began entering beauty contests shortly after moving to Florida at 17. She enrolled in modeling school, and signed to Coronet Modeling Agency upon receiving positive attention during her six-week training. She won many of the pageants she entered, and was crowned Miss Trailer Coach, Sports Queen, and--most fittingly--Queen of Miami. The colorful titles suited her, and her early modeling work shows her vivacious personality, and ideal 1950s curves. Not visible in the images though, was Yeagers relentless drive and creativity. Rather than paying photographers for the many prints she needed to get her name in front of scouts to book jobs, she decided to take darkroom photography to develop her own pictures, and began learning how to use a camera. On assignment for this class, she took the Marilyn Monroe look-a-like Maria Stinger to a local wildlife park (where she would later return to shoot one of the most enduring pin up images of Bettie Page, flanked by cougars), and ended up selling the work for use as the March 1954 cover of the girlie magazine Eye.It was clear Bunny Yeager had found her path. 1954 would prove to be a transformative year for Yeager and pin-up photography as an art

Rather than paying photographers for the many prints she needed to get her name in front of scouts to book jobs, she decided to take darkroom photography to develop her own pictures, and began learning how to use a camera. On assignment for this class, she took the Marilyn Monroe look-a-like Maria Stinger to a local wildlife park (where she would later return to shoot one of the most enduring pin up images of Bettie Page, flanked by cougars), and ended up selling the work for use as the March 1954 cover of the girlie magazine Eye.It was clear Bunny Yeager had found her path. 1954 would prove to be a transformative year for Yeager and pin-up photography as

Page entered the field of glamour photography as a popular camera club model. Her lack of inhibition in posing made her a hit and landed her in such mens magazines as Wink, Titter, Eyeful, Beauty Parade and Playboy. While finding success modeling in commercial glamour photography, Pages pin-up and BDSM photos and films for photographer Irving Klaw made her iconic.Hugh Hefner said of Page, I think that she was a remarkable lady, an iconic figure in pop culture who influenced sexuality, taste in fashion, someone who had a tremendous impact on our society.

It has been estimated that over 20, 000 photographs of Bettie were taken, and new generations of fans still buy copies by the thousands. Born in Nashville, Tennessee to a part-Cherokee mother, she grew up in a family so poor "we were lucky to get an orange in our Christmas stockings." The family included three boys and three girls, and Page later said her father molested all of the girls. He eventually stole a police car for a cross-country trip, was caught and sent to prison, and for a time Bettie lived in an orphanage. Her parents divorced when she was 10 years old.In her teens, Bettie acted in high school plays and was a straight-A student. She graduated from the Peabody College for Teachers in Nashville on a Daughters of the American Revolution scholarship in 1944, and went on to study drama in New York City. Her notorious career began one day in October 1950, while on a break from her job as a secretary in a New York office.

Often referred to as the Queen of the Pinups, Betties jet-black hair, blue eyes, and trademark fringe have influenced artists and models for generations. Page entered the field of glamour photography as a popular camera club model. Her lack of inhibition in posing made her a hit and landed her in such mens magazines as Wink, Titter, Eyeful, Beauty Parade, and Playboy. While finding success modeling in commercial glamour photography, Pages pin-up and BDSM photos and films for photographer Irving Klaw made her iconic. Hugh Hefner said of Page, I think that she was a remarkable lady, an iconic figure in pop culture who influenced sexuality, taste in fashion, someone who had a tremendous impact on our society.

CONDITION: Excellent vintage condition. Please use the included image as a conditional guide. Guaranteed to be 100 vintage and original from Grapefruit Moon Gallery.Bettie Page's life was filled with cult myth, mystery and sadness.

It has been estimated that over 20, 000 photographs of Bettie were taken, and new generations of fans still buy copies by the thousands. Born in Nashville, Tennessee to a part-Cherokee mother, she grew up in a family so poor "we were lucky to get an orange in our Christmas stockings." The family included three boys and three girls, and Page later said her father molested all of the girls. He eventually stole a police car for a cross-country trip, was caught and sent to prison, and for a time Bettie lived in an orphanage. Her parents divorced when she was 10 years old.In her teens, Bettie acted in high school plays and was a straight-A student. She graduated from the Peabody College for Teachers in Nashville on a Daughters of the American Revolution scholarship in 1944, and went on to study drama in New York City. Her notorious career began one day in October 1950, while on a break from her job as a secretary in a New York office. On a walk along the beach at Coney Island, an amateur photographer admired the 27-year-old's curvaceous body and asked her to pose.
