#7 Harper's Bazaar (Italy) April 1987: Arlene Baxter. https://www.bellazon.com/main/topic/20401-arlene-baxter/#comment-1687153 (See the Dec 25, 2020 post by "missparker7").

Biba (1983): Reminds me of Tracy Fitzpatrick (or her sister Tara Fitzpatrick). https://www.bellazon.com/main/topic/88949-tracy-fitzpatrick/ https://www.bellazon.com/main/topic/95280-tara-fitzpatrick/#comment-5452562

Cristina Ferrare has returned to modelling (after 40 years away), signing with Iconic Focus agency! https://iconicfocus.com/portfolio/cristina-ferrare/

Bonnie Soiree (Avril 1983): Looks like Cheri LaRocque. https://www.bellazon.com/main/topic/66938-cheri-la-rocque/

This Buenhogar 1978 cover's photo was previously published in the Harper's Bazaar (USA) September 1977 issue.

IMO, I don't see why you'd want to see a small early role for Alison Doody in what is considered by most viewers to be among the three worst James Bond movies ("A View To a Kill"; 1985) Larger and more memorable roles for the blonde beauty were: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989) Major League II (1994) Temptation (1994) King Solomon's Mines (2004).

The 2023 Ava Gardner Festival is scheduled for the weekend of October 6-8, 2023, at the Ava Gardner Museum (Smithfield, NC) located just off I-95, Exit 95. Ava Gardner Museum (https://www.johnstoncountync.org/ava-gardner/ ) Monday-Friday: 9:30am - 4:30pm Saturday: 9:00am - 5:00pm Sunday: 2:00pm - 5:00pm I'd visited the Ava Gardner Museum in March 2022.

Capricho (1980): Looks like Sloane Condren. https://www.bellazon.com/main/topic/88523-sloane-condren/page/2/

Martha Longley sizzled in the TV-movie "California Girls" (1985)! Unfortunately, on YT there's only a Spanish-dubbed version "Las Chicas de California" (1985), without English-subtitles (however, the background songs are in English): Most of the screenshots above are from: 1) Morning workout in purple leotard: 38:48. 2) Montage to "Wouldn't It Be Nice" (1966; Beach Boys): 52:38. Ironically in the film, Martha Longley plays the femme fatale whereas Tawny Kitaen (in a small early role) is the girl almost-next-door in the closing scene as well as the friendly diner waitress earlier in the movie.

Sandra ("Sandy") Zatezalo has joined Iconic Focus models as "Sandra Z": https://iconicfocus.com/portfolio/sandra-z/

The May 1, 2023 USA Today newspaper's Opinion page noted two major tribute for Hollywood pioneer actress Anna May Wong: https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/voices/2023/05/01/barbie-mattel-anna-may-wong-doll-aapi-icon/11691650002/ 1) Mattel is introducing a Barbie doll based on Anna May Wong for its Inspiring Women Series to celebrate AAPI Heritage Month. 2) The U.S. Mint announced last year that Anna May Wong would be the first Asian American to be depicted on a U.S. Quarter, placed in circulation starting October 2022. https://www.usmint.gov/coins/coin-medal-programs/american-women-quarters/anna-may-wong

Giola (1974): Looks like Evelyn Kuhn.

Vogue Patterns (September 1989): Is the blonde model in the center Lisa Ryall?

Glamour (USA) - August 1991: Catherine McCord. https://www.bellazon.com/main/topic/29978-catherine-mccord/#comment-2219208

Thank you! I'd never known about these remarkable photo sessions starring the era's top supermodels, till now.

Lori Dickerson (a former Miss California) sizzled on her first "Star Search" "TV Spokesmodel" competition photo session:

Tonja Christensen is best known as Playboy Playmate of the Month (November 1991).

Lovey Marino had a Mademoiselle cover back in December 1977.

This blonde's profile looks like Cecilia Rodhe as well. https://www.bellazon.com/main/topic/92341-cecilia-rodhe/#comment-5334243

Top Right: Maria von Hartz.

French Cosmopolitan (Juin 1982): Looks like model-actress Pam Gidley. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0317293/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1

And apart from the hard-to-find model agencies' books, I can recommend the easy-to-find "The Ford Models' Crash Course in Looking Great" (1985) by Eileen Ford. Hardcover, approx 250 pages, with all of the models attributed. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2334524.m570.l1313&_nkw=Ford+Models+Crash+Eileen+Ford&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&_odkw=Ford+Models+Eileen+Ford&_osacat=0

@RocketQueenThank you for posting these Model comp cards! It's always interesting glancing thru these and seeing which then-unknowns became not only breakout stars, but maintained a long-running career in the notoriously "disposable" entertainment industry (e.g., Alexandra Paul; Demi Moore, etc.), without flaming out (e.g., Gia Carangi). With a little pride, I remember watching the televised 1985 Elite "Look of the Year" contest and picking the winner (Frederique van der Wal) on the opening introductions, and doing the same for the 1986 Ford Models "Supermodel of the Year" contest (Monika Schnarre). Unlike pageants where one has to wait till the end to see if their leading candidate bombs the interview question, a top model may just have that "It" factor.
