Well, Klondike has a thread on obscure festivals and directed me to this old tread. I have hundreds, ok maybe a thousand or so 35mm slides from the late 70s and 80s shows at both Ponderosa, (NAP) and Naked City. It isn't real easy to convert the slides to digital, but I have about 300 or so that I have converted. I use to attend both shows , "back in the day" but haven't been to a Nudes-a-Poppin' show since 2005. I didn't pay much attention to the 'Stars" of the show in the 2000s, as most if not all, were strippers from clubs around the Country, most with silicone titties, which is ok if you like that sort of thing, but in the recent years I spent 95% of my time, and pictures on the people attending the show, which, quite frankly is where the real people show is.
The easiest way to tell the difference between photos from the NAP show, at Ponderosa, and the Naked City show is, the NAP show is always around the pool, and the contestants would be on the stage and walk around the pool to little elevated platforms in a large circle. At Naked City, the contestants were on a concrete area, no pool, and always had chairs to sit on in a large circle. Also, any photo that has the glass round building in the background is at Naked City. That glass building is still there, and is still used by the current Sun Aura Club. Anyway, heres a few photos from the 1979 Nudes a poppin show. More if wanted, both NAP and Naked City
