I'm In Love With "These" Strippers

Stripping is a way of life these days, and has been a long standing "career" for many women. American striptease began when the vaudeville trapeze artist Charmion performed a "disrobing" act onstage as early as 1896 , which was captured in an Edison film, "Trapeze Disrobing Act" in 1901 . Another milestone for modern American striptease is the legendary show at Minsky's Burlesque in April of 1925: The Night They Raided Minsky's. In the sixties and seventies, with changing cultural expressions of sexuality, it declined in profitability and status. In the eighties and technology boom of the nineties, those in the profession enjoyed increased acceptance and better working conditions.(wikipedia)

While researching polaroids, I came across these wonderful photos of some 1960's and 70's strippers. These flicks are great inspiration for a photo shoot. Strike a pose!!
