K Club Special - Part 22 Jayne Modean (Part 2)

I'm sure my loyal readers are a bit confused right now.  After all these K Club Special have - up to now - followed a predictable pattern.  Every year we do a post on each of the big four K Clubbers (Kathy, Karen, Kay, and Colleen.)  And the rest of the year, we have K Club posts featuring other catalog models of the 70s.

But now we're featuring a second post on Jayne Modean?  Well, here at the Kathy Loghry Blogspot we are always sensitive to our readers requests.  And based on our search stats, Jayne is certainly VERY popular still.  So she earns the first follow up post of outside of the big four.

I have never heard of C & C Cola before, and never seen this ad until recently.  I will give the company credit for one thing - putting Jayne in their commercial.

Speaking of ads........
I think I'm getting very sleepy.

"Curl It!" "Shave It!" Work it girl!!  Jayne was a "go to" model for ads of all types in the late 70s and early 80s.

But we can't leave out those groovy Big Book catalogs......
Jayne looking good in Spiegel.

Jayne with Micaela from the 1982 Aldens summer catalog.


A classic Jayne pic from JCP!

Again from JCP.

More catalog pics, this time from Montgomery Wards. (1)

Again from MW.  Jayne had that magic smile that was perfect for the Big Books. (1)

Let's not leave out Sears!! (1)

Well, Jayne was great and a favorite of many.  But this is still the Kathy Loghry blogsot.  So, we have to include some pics of Kathy!
There's way, way too much cuteness here.  It almost makes me want Winter to get here early, well almost.

Brrrr, I feel the chill of Winter coming on now!!  But this final pic of Kathy, Jayne and Karen should warm everyone's heart!!

Print Ads Part 5 - What Sort of Man.......

Sighhhh! Yet another icon of my youth has passed.  Well sort of.  You probably heard that Playboy Magazine has decided to stop publishing nudes in their mag.  The rational is that "all sorts of porn are only a click away on the internet."

HEY!!  That's not the point!!  Playboy represented an ideal in many a young lad's mind.  It wasn't about the nude pics (well maybe a little, okay a lot.)  It was a right of passage.  Let's face it, to catch a peek of the wonders inside a Playboy was the ultimate goal of many a young adolescent male.  And the coolest kid on the block was the one that found his old man's "stash." (and invited over his friends for a look!!!!)

Naturally, Playboy caught a lot of flack for "objectifying" women or some such nonsense.  So they tried to class it up with its "What Sort of Man Reads Playboy" shtick.  Therefore, in honor of the passage of an era.......................

"What sort of man reads the 'Kathy Loghry Blogspot'?  He's a man that can perfectly blend a casual afternoon picnic with the suavest fashions of the 70s.  With nothing more than an impish, mischievous smirk, he can slay the heart of the hottest babe on the planet.  And then without breaking frame turn and ask 'What! you forgot the mustard?'  Yeah, the  term alpha is but a mere, imperfect adjective to describe his aloof, mysterious persona......."

Yeah, those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end.
