The Beauty of Retrospect: Catherine Roberts

I have planned for July another set of four week-long looks back at four different models that I've featured here before. But as this is still June, I thought I'd take a look back at other models as well . . . starting with an all-time favorite of mine, Catherine Roberts. :-)


Ms. Roberts has been modeling since the seventies, and her career was especially active at the time Jimmy Carter was President.  If you saw President Carter on the evening news, than the commercial break probably included a spot with Ms. Roberts in it - like a commercial for Aqua Velva aftershave featuring her as the woman drawn to an Aqua Velva man.  The picture above is from a still from that commercial.       


Of course, Catherine Roberts is best known for her print work, and here are two wonderful examples of that.  Above is a picture from ad for Charles of the Ritz cosmetics ad, and below is a very sensuous photo from a Bergdorf  Goodman catalog.


Both photos are from 1979.
