In the 50's and 60's it wasn't hard to find the lovely Diane Webber in any number of men's and nudist magazines. She was a sought-after model who wasn't afraid to bare it all in front of the photographer's camera. In this pictorial from BATTLE CRY (February 1964) she keeps her clothes on -- well, most of the time.
Two years earlier, Miss Webber starred in the fantasy/adventure film THE MERMAIDS OF TIBURON. She was in a few other genre films, SINTHIA, THE DEVIL'S DOLL for one, but besides being an unabashed nudist, her greatest achievement was becoming a world-class belly dancer.
Here's a lucky guy taking a swim with Diane and her mermaid friends in a clip from the movie:
Webber is a bonafide knockout! I've seen that movie and likely I won't get around to watching it again, but never say never. I have to say that with all the material that's available on the internet these days, a chick who is just a nudist is quaint -- beautiful but quaint.
ReplyDeleteIt was inevitable that "pinup" photos would evolve into the extreme. Natural beauty has largely given way to plastic surgery, silicone and Botox. In some ways it's almost like a freak show. As for the movie, I can think of better ways to spend an hour or so!
