Betty Page was one of the first pin up girls and was constantly surrounded by controversy. After posing for ‘Bizarre’ magazine she caused an uproar over erotic images but was also known for more subdued bikini photos:
She was famous in the 150s modelling for various publications and was even “Miss January 1955″ for the infamous Playboy magazine. In a twist of fate she converted to evangelical Christianity in 1959 and even worked with Billy Graham, the famous evangelist.
These images have helped give rise to a classic ‘pin up girl’ look. Unfortunately, Betty Page passed away in 2008. We have some links below to some more amazing galleries and photos. Thanks for visiting and be sure to check out our cheap bikinis as well.
