Thanks -always grabbed the Sears catalog when it came just to see the pages of panties and such - question - does anyone know of a link to pictures taken Prior to editing, airbrushing, neating up for publication ? We've all seen that hair pokes through, shadows emerge, nipples pop....but you never see that in your sunday circular ! there must be some access someplace to these beautiful models in their skivvies just as you'd see them in your bedroom. ?Thx

Earlier this week, having connection problems, I went old school and dug out an old box of paper (!); I have, as it turns out, lots of old ads, including underwear ones, though my interest was a little more specialized than seen here, viz. ones that showed glimpses or more of the delights beneath the fabric. I just scanned one as a test, and could do more if there's interest - most are French or British, with some later American versions...let me know.

...and, now, still fiddling with picture size and characteristics but not yet thrilled by the results, here's an example of my preferred Maidenform campaign!

Sounds like you have a treasure trove of great old material there. Let's see what you got.

Thanks

Let me be the first to second that.

Well then, a couple of questions, given my lack of expertise and good equipment. What size is big enough but not so big as to compromise quality via pixellation? As you may observe, these are pretty byte-intensive; can that be fixed without too much image degradation? How best to tweak the file to bring out what I clipped them for in the first place - being able to see what's not quite concealed? I'm using an HP Photosmart 2610, sizing them down with the HP Image Zone software, and playing with contrast etc. using MS Office Picture Manager, just so you know what an antediluvian you're dealing with...
