In the not-too-distant past, howerver, you actually had to have talent to get much notice. The beautiful women below have names that will live on, although realizing how old they are makes guys like me mourn for lost opportunities.
But even though they were about 15 years out of my reach when they were in the headlines, these are some of the beauties from my youth.
Ursula Andress is 70 years old, but she wasn't always:
Ann-Margret is 65:
Bridget Bardot (alas, my own lost love!) is now 72:
Julie Christie is 65:
Barbara Eden, for whom I would have killed -- or died -- is 72:
Sophia Loren is now 72:
Elke Sommer is 66 this year:
Raquel Welch is 67:
These definitely are not all of the beauties who dominated many men's fantasies in the 50's, 60's, and 70's. Others for whom we drooled were Jane Asher, Julie Andrews, Marianne Faithful, Catherine Deneuve, Caroll Baker, Goldie Hawn, Mamie Van Doren, Mia Farrow, Jane Fonda and, oh, so many others.
If you were alive then, who was
your favorite?
