Are you ready for a rarity? Leola Lauren, of Leola Talks Tantra, came to visit back when photographers, assistants, and models were mostly wearing masks. But she’s never been one to hide who she is, what she does, or how she does what she does, for that matter.
In this set, she’s motivated to play some strip solitaire. (The prize money figures into a later set that you’ll see if you stick around. It’ll be sooner if Leola gets some appreciation for this set.) Poor thing. She not only fails to win even one round, she finds that once she’s out of items to remove (though we allowed that the necklace counted for a round), there’s still a round to play. The prize is sufficient, but the penalty is steep. Still, only once she agrees and starts her final round does she find that the deck has become stacked against her.
As was her standard back in the day, spread-shots were within her boundaries—so long as there was an artistic or narrative point to be made. Still, not as much is on display here as her hand keeps almost everything to the south covered. But you can almost hear the conversation, as when she accepts that the pair of ankle-laced heels counts as just once item…or when she’s thrilled to learn that her necklace buys her another chance at a winning hand.
But in the end, when all she has are aces, she finds that she’s the final ace to be played.
