 The photos
were taken in a cramped Los Angeles studio on
May 27, 1949. Neither professional
photographer Tom Kelley nor the nude
22-year-old blonde posing sensuously before
his lens could have realized what was about to
happen.
That next click of Kelley's camera shutter,
over fifty years ago, began a love affair, one
the world still perpetuates and eagerly
embraces. Marilyn Monroe, the sex symbol of
the modern age, was born. The two-hour session
produced the immortal photos "A New Wrinkle"
and "Golden Dreams", photos which sold
millions of calendars worldwide and launched
Marilyn into the hearts of millions more.
One of the Red Velvet poses made her the
first Playboy Sweetheart-the prototype for the
centerfolds who would follow in years to come.
We know them today as Playmates.
