Yvette Vickers’ mummified body discovered: B-movie actress posed for one of Playboy’s most iconic shots

May 3, 2011 By Kathy Shaidle

 

This 1959 shot of Yvette Vickers was shot by Russ Meyer, who temporarily put his breast fetish on hold and created one of his most famous images.

Today she was found dead:

Yvette Vickers, an early Playboy playmate whose credits as a B-movie actress included such cult films as “Attack of the 50-Foot Woman” and “Attack of the Giant Leeches,” was found dead last week at her Benedict Canyon home. Her body appears to have gone undiscovered for months, police said.
