Information on Dear Departed Beloved
Cynthia Myers was an American model and actress, and Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for the December 1968 issue.
Cynthia Myers was the first Playboy Playmate born in the 1950s when she
appeared in the magazine in December 1968. The pictures were shot in
June 1968 when she was 17 years old, but it was Playboy's policy by that
time to wait until a Playmate turned 18 before her pictures would be
published. Her pictorial was titled "Wholly Toledo!" because of Myers'
hometown and large breasts. Her centerfold was photographed by Pompeo
Posar, and quickly became a favorite of American troops in Vietnam. The
centerfold appears in the 1987 film Hamburger Hill. According to Myers,
she was 13 when her breasts began to develop to the size 39 DD they were
when she appeared in Playboy.
After her magazine debut, Myers made frequent appearances on Hugh
Hefner's Playboy After Dark TV series in 1969. She made an uncredited
appearance in They Shoot Horses, Don't They? before taking the leading
role of the sensitive lesbian rock and roll singer and bass player Casey
Anderson in Russ Meyer's Beyond the Valley of the Dolls. She followed
this with a supporting role in the Western, Molly and Lawless John
(1972).
In 1994, it became known that a nude photo of Myers (along with fellow
playmates Angela Dorian, Reagan Wilson and Leslie Bianchini) was scanned
and inserted into Apollo 12 Extra-vehicular activity astronaut cuff
checklists by pranksters at NASA.
