Thank you @BlueAcadiaand @RocketQueen.

Thanks so much.
Yes, I forgot Stephanie to mention.
Aly is new to me.

This is wonderful seeing all these old pictures! I had no idea how much I liked older models/magazines/photography. I only know of current/semi current models.
was she a big model for her day? I see she has 32 pages.
In certain shots, she reminds me of Alexandra Tikerpuu, who I really like.
thank you all for uploading content.

I am from a suburb of Pittsburgh!!!! lived here all my life and still live here! I wonder if my parents ever met/knew her? They would've been in their 20s in the 80s.
thanks for all the information! that was great to read. I am really enjoying her work, and I can see from you posted that she got a lot of amazing work.
