From pinups to porn stars, first ladies to strippers, scream queens to bathing beauties, they're pretty much all here beginning with the top ten of Marilyn Monroe, Raquel Welch, Jayne Mansfield, Brigitte Bardot, Rita Hayworth, Bettie Page, Sophia Loren, Jean Harlow, June Wilkinson and Cindy Crawford, then spiraling downward past Diane Webber, Traci Lords, Diana Rigg, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Carol Doda, Jennie Garth, and Gwen Stefani all the way to Isadora Duncan(!) - number 1000... Each entry includes a brief biography, and in most instances a saucy pic. A pristine copy. 0-312-20651-8 Inventory Number: 010239
