Last year, I posted the first of this series, in which I lamented the disappearance of beautiful cars and lovely women from teenage boys’ bedroom walls. That post featured a couple Ferraris and Lucy Pinder.
Here’s another such coupling [sic]. First, two cars of the Corvette persuasion:
…and second, one of the pinups who might have appeared on the opposite wall:
As the old saying went: “Farrah Fawcett: creating pup-tents in teenage boys’ beds since the 1970s.”
And as an older woman:
At the height of her popularity, flame-haired Debra Paget received fan mail in quantities only exceeded by Marilyn Monroe and Betty Grable. This may be the reason:

She graduated high school at age 14, and then she went to college to study law. Fortunately, sanity prevailed and she went into a musical career, then into movies.
One of her co-stars is reported to have said that she had the “most kissable mouth in Hollywood”. That’s some strong competition, but Gertrude Michaels would have been right up there… still, I’ll let everyone else be the judge.
The bits below the lips weren’t too bad, either:
She would have been a lousy lawyer, anyway.
