Teaneck, NJ: Letters Magazine, Inc., 1985. V7 N12, December 1985. Gray, white, & salmon-colored stock, 98pp; distributed by Kable News. Vintage adult digest magazine devoted to erotic fetishist correspondence (really just short diary-style entries), illustration, adult video & novelty ads. "Femlin" style illustration on rear panel. Bob Guccione guest editorial. Ties to RCLP Products company. House favorite model Joanne Latham on the front in green spaghetti-strap top, looking over her shoulder & slightly exposed posterior (you even get a peek at her feet & toes). Joanne carried on the British custom of producing women w/ mass appeal, voluptuous curves, & "Page Three Girl" credentials. From her youth in Wolverhampton, lessons in ballet, to first nude photos appropriated by Guccione at Penthouse in 1979, to her post-modeling career shortly before 1990, & her devotion to spirituality & yoga, Joanne's often beguiling icy gaze & unmentionable dimensions 40-25-35 still captivate on paper, vinyl album sleeves, or VHS boxes for films she never appeared in. She also appeared on several more digest magazine covers, including Response, Oui Letters, Pillow Talk, & Family Letters. Very Good Plus, rubbing. Steve Sullivan, "Glamour Girls: The Illustrated Encyclopedia," #85, 1999.  [Book ID: 125951]  [Magazines]
