COVER STORY
You probably think we should be able to afford a tuxedo apiece for these dazzling
blondes, but what we're trying to get across is that they're sisters. The Landers
sisters, to be specific—Audrey and Judy, whose flourishing careers in showbiz
you'll read about in our pictorial on page 98. The cover was photographed by Arny
Freytag and produced by West Coast Photography Editor Marilyn Grabowski. The reflective
Rabbit comes compliments of Kiwi shoe polish.
