Description
Photograph was edited for publication purposes; Title supplied by cataloger.
Photograph article dated May 5, 1962 partially reads, "The tall tantalizer adorning this column and, I dare say, attracting additional readers, is model Diane Weston, wearing a custom-made itty-bitty polka-dot swimsuit from Paulette's, on Woodman Ave. If you were in the Wednesday p.m. traffic jam at Woodman and Oxnard, blame it on Diane posing for fashion photos. And on the VTT photographer who insisted on taking the pictures outside."
