Top 30 Playmates

[Richard1968]

If anyone ever thought about ranking the 10, 20. 30 or whatever playmates or female celebrities or whatever you know it is hard to leave someone off the list. Their just so close. If I lost my memory and tried to do this again any of my top 7 could go to number 1. Several others could make the list. Justine Greiner, Patricia Farinelli, and Debra Jo Fondren where among the last 5 I removed to cut the list down to 30.
I think there are over 500 playmates and I may have over looked some of them. Louann Fernald is one of them. I would have put her somewhere between Lisa Welch and Marianne Garvatte.
I looked at the others mentioned in the thread and none of them would have made my list. Everyone has their own taste. I don't care for the 60's look and what I consider oversized breast. I guess as far as a women's chest goe somewhere between Lisa Welch and Karen Velez is perfect. Bigger usually but not always is worse.

Hard to argue about any of the P***M*** in the 1975-1985 time span. I'm partial to, in no particular order, Denise McConnell, Candy Loving, Cyndi Wood, Justine Greiner, Ruth Guerri, and probably my alltime favorite, Karen Morton.

Did you mean styles like this? That's not weird, just different. Anyone whose formative years were in the 60's will tell you that you could practically hear the hormones raging when viewing the images below. For the most (body) part, they were all natural, too! The inflatable dolls with the body piercings, tattoos and the shaven smooth as a cue ball look, now that's weird.

I agree, 50 is a good number. Also, thanks for the reminder about Louann. She's another excellent choice who should have been given more attention.

Thanks to Marxz and Bluenose for the pics.

How many Asian P.M.s were there?

1975-1995 were Playboy's best years. Within that time 1981-1984 was the absolute sweet spot with Kim McArthur, Lynda Wiesmeier, Karen Price, Patti Farinelli, Barbara Edwards, Kym Malin and a gaggle of others. Marilyn Lange also fits the bill altho she was a little earlier. The playmates of the 60's are also incredibly beautiful although the mag then adhered to a more conservative standard for what it was revealing.

So I guess the proper heading is "Richard1968's Top 30 P-mates".

Where is that pic from? I've never seen it before. And could I induce you to post the full size version...?
