Alluring 8x10-inch black and white swimsuit portrait in her prime, boldly signed in black felt-tip marker n-person at a recent film convention appearance about two decades ago. In good condition, with one or two minor handling dings, invisible when the image is viewed head-on. Gorgeous Barbara Leigh was memorable in films like Junior Bonner (1972), Terminal Island (1973) and sci-fi’s Mistress of the Apes (1979). She is also remembered as the original Vampirella, the vampire superheroine created by Forrest J. Ackerman, and for two Playboy pictorials in 1973 and 1977.
