This week we mark the passing of the “notorious” Bettie Page , who died on December 11th  after a sudden heart attack. The fetish icon had disappeared during the mid-1950s…only popping up in the news in the early 1980s when she was arrested for assaulting her landlady (actual mug shot “sleuthed out”). She finally “went public” in the late ’90s upon learning of the “cult” that had built up around her, but as each obituary made sure to point out, she “refused to have her picture taken.” Sleuth is not so easily dissuaded, however, and managed to unearth this rare shot of the icon at 80–still sporting her trademark bangs! Everyone knows about Bettie’s kinky poses, but when you join the Sleuth you’ll be treated to dozens of her rarer, more revealing exposures…
