Note also the line of the left hip; clumsy PS work left a jagged edge.

AND......they gave her a baby penis. Terrible job. I'm an amateur at PSE11 but I'm afraid I could've done a better job.

Reminds me of a Sears catalog years before digital photography; the late "60's. A male model modeling either boxer shorts or swim suits; I don't remember which.
He was pretty well endowed and was hanging a little loose. Probably the only Sears catalog that was ever recalled for obscene photo's.

My father in law had a copy but it seems to have been lost

A Model Exposed
Claim:   The mens underwear section of a 1975 Sears catalog featured a picture of a male model whose penis could be seen peeking out from beneath a pair boxer shorts.


UNDETERMINED


Origins:   A page advertising mens' shirts, boxers, and briefs in Sears' 1975 Fall-Winter catalog displayed a picture of two male models, one wearing boxer shorts and the other clad in briefs. A small, rounded object or blemish could be seen on the inside of the boxer model's left leg, apparently emerging from underneath the hem of the shorts. The size, positioning, and shape of the "object" were all consistent with that of a penis.

Although Sears did receive some letters of protest over their showing "this individual's nakedness," Sears maintains that nothing improper appeared in the picture.

Their official explanation is that the "object" was a blemish caused by water or some other liquid falling onto the artwork during the printing process, and that the same picture (sans "object") appeared in the Spring catalog earlier that year.

We'll leave it up to you readers. Penis or blemish? You decide.

Sightings:   This Sears ad was immortalized in song by Zoot Fenster with a ditty entitled "The Man on Page 602."

My completely un professional opinion is that the object that appears to be a penis is his thigh and the shape is determined by the shirt that is in front of the picture.... seems pretty simple to me..
