Donna Long

sp17 · August 21st, 2023, 03:45 AM

Donna Long was a Canadian model active in the 1950s and 1960s. She is probably best known for her brief uncredited appearance in Russ Meyer’s first movie, The Immoral Mr. Teas (fourth image below). Her IMDb page.

The publicity listings section on IMDb only lists three publications she appeared in currently — Sir Knight, Gala, and Caper — all in 1958. Given her scene in Teas was likely shot in ‘58 ahead of its original May 1959 release date, her time as a model may have been brief. “From Caper’s Private File” lists her as 23-years-old as of January 1958, Canadian-born and possessing 37-24-36 measurements.

I’ve come across a number of black-and-white images of her taken by Ron Vogel on eBay, the first one with the following item description: “Original vintage camera negative from Ron Vogel's personal archive. This is model Donna Long shot by Mr. Vogel in March of 1958.” All of these contain the “datz” word mark.

Man's Point of View, June 1959. I found this via a PimEyes search. She does not appear to be credited as the cover girl.

An assortment of those small, out-of-focus (beyond the face) images PimEyes returns. Most interesting is the last few since she appears a bit older in them, indicating she modeled into the 1960s.

Tab, December 1958

Feminine Form, December 1958

I don't know what magazine these originate from. I found them on two separate pages on PinkFineArt. There's a third from this set in my previous post, but that website apparently doesn't have it.

Searching through the Internet Archive's Vintage Men's Magazines only returns twelve instances of advertisements. Volume 1, Issue 1 (1959) of Sizzle Magazine has an ad listing her under Pin-Up Movies. The other eleven feature the same ad for 50 ft. movies with Long's movie titled "On A Picnic".

Searching with those small PimEyes images never returns anything on Google and Bing, but Yandex delivered on a few. These two are from the Historic Erotica website.

eBay item title: 5 Vintage B&W Photo Lot Amateur Sexy Blonde Lingerie Heels Fishnet Stockings. In the description the seller refers to her as an "Adorable blonde in lingerie."
