Cover Girl Caption TANTALIZING ANGELIQUE PETTYJOHN - Is the glamorous coquette who creates exquisite excitement on stage in the Gaiety Theatre of the popular Silver Slipper Gambling Hall and Saloon. Featured in Barry Ashton's great fun show, "Wonderful World of Burlesque", the seductive Angelique displays her versatility to the delight of the audiences, three times nightly at 10 pm, 12:30 and 2:24 am.
HOOPER SAYS:"This photo was taken at the ruins of the old burnt down El Rancho Vegas Hotel, at the corner of the Las Vegas strip and Sahara Ave. We had only briefly met before. Angelique was driving her old VW bug painted psychedelic with big fish (she was a Pisces). We only had a short time to get the shot required for the Visitor cover so we jumped out of our respective cars in the heat and she quickly revealed much more than needed for the sexy cover photo. Her charm, professionalism and enthusiasm led to a long and fruitful relationship of mutual respect, both as friends and collaborators. Over the years we did many shootings together, from Playboy magazine layouts to Star Trek posters."
