When Bettie Page hooked up with N.Y. photographer, Irving Klaw, a series of many risque photo shoots took place which eventually led to the government filing criminal charges against Irving Klaw. In a plea bargin, Klaw agreed to destroy all the photographs taken during thaty period. But his wife, Paula Klaw took several photos and negatives and stashed them. From those stashed negatives comes many of those famous risque Page photos we see today. In fact, Klaw's nephew is still in New York and you can order reprints through his company. HOWEVER< the RARE items are the handful of ORIGINAL photographs from that era. Almost all were destroyed. I have three of the originals and each one is now available to purchase. One of the rarest Bettie Page collectibles out t Buyer pays by Paypal and includes $6 shipping.
