There is an article about Louise Brooks in the current issue of Playboy. See page 21 of the October, 2005 issue. "Lulu in Cyberspace" - the title is lifted from the LBS website - discusses Brooks' life and work in films. An image which accompanies the article depicts Brooks, in the buff. (The picture, by Alfred Cheney Johnston, was taken in 1925 when Brooks was a dancer with the Ziegfeld Follies.) The article concludes, "Recently, fabled nude photos of her have turned up, and experts we consulted say they're legit. Digital prints of the pictures are going for about $10 on eBay."
