They weren't exactly "leaked." The photographer, Tom Kelley, licensed the photos to a publisher that used them for pin-up calendars. Hef then sub-licensed a whole batch of pin-ups from the calendar company (not directly from Kelley) for his magazine (most of the early Playmates of the Month came out of that acquisition and weren't actually shot specifically for the magazine). The photos were therefore already in circulation before being featured in Playboy. However, I believe it was Playboy that first actually credited them to Mariyln, as Kelley had credited her under a pseudonym.

The thing that may have bothered Marilyn was that she never saw a dime from Playboy because models don't get residuals. Kelley paid her enough for her to pay off a car loan, but that was the end of it.

Amber Heard

any interest in this (allegedly) bedshitter?
