Sextet 1964 Bunny Yeager Blue Film Photograph Topless Marie Antoinette Racy
Item History & Price
ITEM: This is a vintage and original 1964 promotional film photograph of Bunny Yeager by Bunny Yeager, using a self timer. This is a previously unseen portrait of the busty former model and cheesecake photographer as Marie Antoinette from her uncredited cameo in husband Bud Irwin's 1964 Adult Film "Sextet". Also of interest is the fact that Linda Lovelace is also listed on IMDb as appearing as an uncredited... "Girl At Party" extra in this blue movie romp in which Yeager was the director of photography. This is really just a unique pop culture oddity to be sure... "Let them eat cheesecake indeed..."
Measures 8" x 10" on glossy, single weigh paper-stock with margins
Fine condition with only minor edge and corner wear. This item comes directly from the Miami, Florida estate of Bunny Yeager. Back is notated with print specifics as seen in Bunny's hand.
