[MB Followup] ID vintage redhead model.. | Who is Anja?

**highwayman274** · July 6th, 2015, 02:25 AM

Followup thread for 2015 MB girl here

Image search turns up many web-pages dedicated to Dian Hanson's "Big Book of Legs", published by Taschen's Erotica.

The mystery photo is of "Anja", circa 1968; not a lot to go on.

Found a vintage erotics blog where the commentator called her "Mickey Jines".

I am not familiar with Mickey, but see a bit of a resemblance . . .

Other opinions?

As much as she looks similar to Mickey, she is not. I have about 200 magazines featuring Mickey, as well as over 100 pieces of film (negatives & transparencies) and have never seen another pic resembling the original model in question.

First photo is from Dian Hanson's ''The Big Book of Legs,'' where she is identified simply as ''Anja'' with no last name given. It looks kind of like an Elmer Batters photo to me, but the book doesn't say that, and I think they probably would if it were.

The three magazine covers I got from a Pimeyes search on the first pic. The seller of the last one calls her ''Anja Brousseau,'' but since Taschen didn't have that name and I can't find it anywhere else, I don't feel like that's ''official.'' I could be wrong.

I agree.
Those shots must be Elmer Batters work. But I can not ID her, sorry.

Is there a thread here for Elmer Batters work, we can search?
Or a resource for his ID'ed models?

The only four Elmer Batters models I can ID by name, for sure were.
Curushka, Christine Ferguson, Regina Dixon, Diane Curtis.

I am familiar with Mickey Jines. And now that you say it.
I think it could perhaps, be her.

Mickey had a long modeling career through the entire 1960s. And had many, many different looks, hair colors, and hair styles.

But I see mylander disagrees, that it's Mickey.

Quick search tuned up this image of Mickey. Probably circa 1966/1967.

Oh well, after checking Mickey's thread I see one above, is already there. Sorry for the repost.
I should've check her thread first.
