Berne, Colette (featured)
Presenting: Collette Andre (vintage adult pinup digest magazine, 1950s)
N.p.: Dawson Publishing Co., 1950s. Vintage adult digest magazine featuring model & Las Vegas showgirl Colette Berne (as Collette Andre), posing & emphasizing natural assets, in lingerie, slowly revealing her flesh on a bed. Colette was born in Iowa, grew to lush dimensions, a tall model, who worked in Vegas, at the Moulin Rouge in Hollywood, performed in a few nudie loops, & appeared in dozens of men's magazines, often photographed by A-list photographers, including Russ Meyer. Popular mid 1950s-60s.
Hundreds of similar digest magazines were produced by fly-by-night operations, mainly around New York, notably Burmel Publishing (Lenny Burtman's enterprise). Many were published as photography and/or art "studies" booklets, w/ technical camera data, exposure chart, & the standard emphasis on sexual liberation; early issues featured several models per issue & many maintain airbrushing techniques rolled over from nudist magazines, much of the posing naturally obscures otherwise censored areas. Still scarce institutionally.
32pp, 5.25 x 8.25 inches, B/W throughout, duochrome wrapper, saddle-stapled. Very Good Plus, light rubbing & spine stress, pencil price notation.
