COVER STORY
Credit this month's cover to the women. Marilyn Grabowski, our West Coast Photo Editor, conceived the idea; lens lady Suze Randall (who shot August 1975 Playmate Lillian Muller for us) did the photography; and actress Kristine De Bell is the model. The picture at right was taken by Suze during a playful lull in the shooting.
