I go through a lot of old catalogs, magazines, and the like.... probably more than most anyone. And as I go through old paper media I often come across famous figures before they were famous, which is always interesting. I will also find recognizable faces - some unidentified model who happens to be in a lot of ads and catalogs. And I can say, without hesitation, that the chick pictured above is in more shit than
anyone, and I mean any other model out there.
I haven't seen her in the more upscale publications like
Vogue or
Cosmo; however, she's damn sure in about everything else I come across. It's starting to drive me crazy, because nowhere is her name credited... at least nowhere that I can find.
You start seeing her around 1968, and she's everywhere till about 1976; then, you don't see her anymore. But in that eight year time period, this chick was busy! She's in everything from JC Penny catalogs to Needlework leaflets to Christian publications (see below).
To clarify, I am not obsessed or anything. I'm just starting to get tired of coming across this groovy young lady and not knowing who she is. Perhaps she's even been in a movie or two? Perhaps she's well known and I'm just a dumb ass. I don't know - but if you can help me on this, I'd be eternally in your debt. Help!
Here's a few more examples of the Mystery Model in a variety of different sources.
