As early as the 1950s, photographer Bruce Mozert went where no campy photographer had gone before, sealing his beloved camera in a handy water-proof case. Et voila! An underwater pin-up girl is born:
Mozert's shots feature Ginger Stanley, stunt actress in "Creature from the Black Lagoon," in astounding clarity while cavorting below sea level. According to the Photography Office, Mozert snapped the tantalizing shots in Silver Springs, Florida, where they were later picked up by MGM Studios.
