It doesn't matter if you're a boomer, zoomer, gen-Xer, or millennial.
Whenever you say the world vintage, it always means the same thing.
The word vintage is synonymous with the terms old-school, retro, old-fashioned, and antique.
But perhaps one of the best things about old vintage stuff is getting the opportunity to
see things you were once too young to enjoy properly.
Long before the days of social media and COVID-19, life was a heck of a lot simpler, wasn't it?
Gone are the days when celebrities weren't completely obsessed with likes, retweets,
and how many followers they have, but we can still take a look back in time at these golden
years thanks to well-preserved and digitalized vintage photographs.
Join Facts Verse as we take a walk down memory lane while taking a gander at some photos
that we were probably a bit too young to understand and fully appreciate when they first made
the rounds.
Some of these candid photos are pretty provocative but don't worry, nothing we're about to share
with you constitutes material that is 'not safe for work – but it definitely comes
close.
So, get ready to see some steamy, scandalous, and unexpected pictures from yesteryear.
Maureen McCormick Looking Sour On The Set Of The Brady Bunch – 1972
This vintage photo was taken of Maureen McCormick, who portrayed Marcia Brady on the classic
sitcom The Brady Bunch, appearing pretty observably upset while donning a mini-skirt and sitting
cross-legged while on set.
The pic was taken during the filming of an episode of the series titled 'Greg's Triangle'
in which Marcia's adopted brother Greg was asked to cast the deciding vote selecting
the next head cheerleader.
His choices were either his new step-sister or his current girlfriend at the time, Jennifer.
At the end of the day, he chose neither of them, instead of giving the coveted position
to a girl named Pat, portrayed by Rita Wilson.
Jennifer subsequently dumped Greg after he submitted his vote, but Marcia praised her
brother for his wise decision.
The Queen Of The Drag Race – Date Unknown
Long before the days of The Italian Job and The Fast and the Furious, drag racing was
already a super popular sport back in 1970s.
And one of the most prevalent features that one would see at the race track was the gorgeous
women who attended the races in their skin-tight shorts and barely-there shirts.
One of these drag racing Queens was known in the racing community as 'Jungle Pam Hardy',
seeing as how she was the sidekick of one the most celebrated racers in the scene, Jim
'Jungle Jim' Liberman.
Even though she only worked alongside Jim for less than half a decade, she still earned
her place in history as being the most iconic backup girl in drag racing history.
Rock Stars Doing What They Do - 1972
During its formative years, Rock 'N Roll was all about sex, drugs, and pushing the boundaries
of what society deemed to be acceptable.
Back in the 1970s, rock stars were practically deified by their fans and especially so by
their devoted legion of groupies.
Young women would practically wait in line to get a chance to sleep with their idols,
and if you've ever seen the film Almost Famous, then you know precisely what we're referring
to.
In this photo, we have Keith Richards and Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones, as well
as their buddy Bob Dylan, kickin' it while they celebrated Mick's 29th Birthday.
The insane thing is, nearly half a century later, if you were to recreate this photo
with these same three stars, they would still probably be cooler than any of us.

Daisy Duke Looking Flawless – Date Unknown
Alright, those last three photos were pretty tame, but feast your eyes on this one!
When Jessica Simpson was cast to play Daisy Duke in the Dukes of Hazzard reboot film,
she clearly had some big shoes to fill.
And honestly, she never came close to the level of sex appeal that Catherine Bach, the
actress who played Daisy Duke in the original television series, was able to effortlessly
convey.
Linda Ronstadt Left Little To The Imagination – 1976
Wardrobe malfunctions and full-frontal nudity are pretty commonplace these days, but back
in the day, a star showing off a healthy dose of their body was pretty controversial.
But that certainly didn't stop Linda Ronstadt from wearing a white, nearly transparent nightgown
while posing for the cover of her album 'Hasten Down The Wind'.
While the move was a bit of risk, the album went on to spend three weeks on the Billboard
charts.
But that makes you wonder whether the album was successful because of the quality of her
music or because of that spicy album cover.
But then again, she did end up winning a Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Performance, so who knows?
Maybe it was both.
Who Didn't Dream Of Jeannie?
- 1959
The lovely Barbara Eden portrayed a genie fittingly named Jeannie on the iconic sitcom
I Dream of Jeannie.
And yes, that was a bit redundant.
Seeing as how the show hit the airwaves in the late 1950s, her outfits were pretty scandalous
for the time.
But even though Eden often gave audiences a bit of skin, there were actually fairly
strict rules about what she could and could not wear.
For one thing, Eden was required to constantly cover her naval in a seemingly futile attempt
to dial down her sexiness.
Dick Cavett Couldn't Keep His Eyes Off Raquel Welch – 1972
Playboy magazine declared Raquel Welch to be the 'Most Desire Woman' of the 1970s.
At the time, Dick Cavett was considered to be the 'thinking-man's' late-night talk show
host, but he had a difficult time keeping his own thoughts straight when he got a chance
to interview Raquel Welch in 1972.
When she sat down with Dick to have a chat, Welch was still a burgeoning star who was
beginning to find her place in the industry.
Just a couple of years later, she won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Motion
Picture for her role in The Three Musketeers.
Goldie Hawn Was Pure Gold – Date Unknown
Even though she's now in her mid-70s, Goldie Hawn still stands out in a crowd.
And she's always been someone that possesses that hard-to-define but unmistakable 'it factor'.
Back when this photo was taken, Hawn was just getting her start in Hollywood.
She previously worked as a go-go dancer in New York City, which likely explains why she
had such a flawless physique.
Eventually, after getting noticed by Tinseltown talent scouts, she was cast in movie roles
thanks to her curvaceous body and signature flowing blonde hair.
Batman Looking Studly – Circa 1960s
If you consider yourself to be a Batman fan, then Adam West needs no introduction, considering
how he was the first actor to breathe life into to the iconic role on the campy Batman
television screen back in the 1960s.
But even though West often looked pretty goofy while portraying the fearless protector of
Gotham city in that groundbreaking series, in this photo, he's seen showing off a very
different side of his personality.
In truth, West was nothing short of a stud.
Step Up To The Plate With Kathy Ireland – Circa 1989
Kathy Ireland was one of the most iconic supermodels of the 1980s, and all across the world, teenage
boys had her posters hanging up on their walls.
There was no one else quite like her at the time.
She even managed to be featured on 13 issues of Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit edition 13
times in a row.
In this photo, Kathy was wearing nothing more than a skimpy maillot while playing America's
most beloved pastime, baseball, thus making the sport a lot sexier than it had ever been
before.
Weird Science?
More Like Sultry Science!
- 1985
Everyone will tell you that the best generation was the one they grew up in, but we're still
pretty convinced that the 1980s takes the cake.
Not only did this period give us gems like the Walkman, Rubik's cubes, jazzercise, Ghostbusters,
and a couple of stellar star wars films, but there was also the addition of American-British
actress Kelly LeBrock.
If you've ever seen the movie Weird Science, then you already know that LeBrock was the
perfect choice to play the dream girl in that provocative film.
Brigitte Bardot Still Makes Us Blush – 1956
While filming And God Created Women, Brigitte Bardot turned the idyllic seaside town of
St. Tropez upside down.
While she and her husband, director Roger Vadim, made their way through the French waterfront
borough, Bardot's sexuality was in full bloom.
Her unapologetic sensuality was so intense that many European press outlets issued decrees
calling for her to be banned from the continent.
Bardot went on to appear in 47 films, record 60 songs and was photographed by a number
of publications, but few photos capture her magic quite like this one.
The Free Worlds First Supermodel – 1978
Although it's debatable who the world's first supermodel was, it's fairly well established
that America's first supermodel was none other than Cheryl Tiegs.
In this photo from Sports Illustrated, Tiegs is seen kneeling in a yellow swimsuit.
Tiegs went on to appear in a number of different issues of the popular sports magazine's 'Swimsuit
Edition' and likewise graced the bedroom walls of practically every boy in the country in
the late 70s and early 80s.
Sursan Sarandon Sits On A Ledge – 1988
Back in her day, Susan Sarandon was considered to be one of the most beautiful women in the
world.
It's easy to see why just looking at this seductive photo.
Sarandon had no problem turning heads no matter where she went, and whenever she showed up
to the red carpet, she stole the spotlight from practically everyone else.
This specific photo was taken of Sarandon during the filming of Bill Durham – and
if you'd like to get an autographed copy for your private collection, you can score one
off eBay for the small price of $134.10.
Poolside Natalie Wood – Circa 1950s
Here's one last photo to send you off.
Natalie Wood was an incredible actress who managed to earn three Oscar nods by the time
she was 25.
She was famous not only for her acting chops but also for how beautiful she was – but
sadly, her fame only increased after her tragic death in 1981 when she drowned under extremely
suspicious circumstances while she was a passenger on actor Robert Wagner's boat.
While Wagner has been named a person of interest in her death, he's repeatedly denied allegations
that he had anything to do with her demise, and Wood's death was ultimately declared to
be accidental.
