I still can't believe that I haven't featured Cynthia King, one of the loveliest black models of the 1980s and one of the loveliest models of the 1980s, period, since August 2010! Well, I should be able to make up for lost time easily, starting today with these two pictures.
Cynthia King was one of the brightest stars of the Wilhelmina agency in the eighties, and she was a constant presence in ads for certain cigarette brand. Both of these photos are taken from said ads, though, as always, the brand is not mentioned here and the offending carcinogenic appendages are edited out.
I haven't found out a great deal about Ms. King, though, because she inexplicably failed to become a big star in the modeling world. But I do know this; she became an artist and is a prolific painter. I'll add a little more info about that later. :-)
