Paula Kelly, was the first woman to be pictured in a full-frontal (though shadowed) nude pose in the magazine.
Penny James was Miss Colorado USA for 1962. Penny also appears on the cover of the October 1965, July 1966, October 1966 and March 1969 issues.
William Ramsey Clark was the Attorney General (1967-69) under President Lyndon B. Johnson. Recently he has become somewhat controversial for the clients to whom he has provided counsel, Radovan Karadzic, Slobodan Milosevic and Saddam Hussein amongst others.
Dick and Tom Smothers are perhaps best know, mostly in the USA, for their hour long variety show "The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour" on CBS. It seems that it was OK in 1967 to make fun of a President's golf game on TV - but not his war. So, by 1969 the show was cancelled, hence the title to this piece. |
