Footless and fancy free used to be a popular expression, but with the coming of the new mod fashions, fancy is no longer free it is in strong competition with the plain sheer stocking. On these and on the following pages, MODern Life presents, from London, England. Dawn Grayson and Penny Winters in the battle of the Stockings. Dawn, wearing the plain, sheer stockings, is one of London's top models. Penny, in plaid stockings, is one of England's leading strippers.
The battle is on. Here Penny and Dawn face each other. Dawn leads with long, leggy advance with no holds barred. Penny on the other hand, counters with a foot-on-bench and peeka-boo lead.
Not to be out manoeuvred, Dawn returns with a full body attack with arms high, chest out, stomach in and knees bent. Here Dawn excels in classic body style. On the other hand, Penny relaxes and awaits the opportunity to counter. She extends her long lead and covers up with her fancy gams close to her chest. Then, to confuse her opponent, she drops into a chair, but she keeps her fancy stockings out in front of her. The straight attack may be best, she observes, as she stands fully erect in the centre of the arena. But no matter how you look at it. the battle of the stockings appears to be a draw.
Realizing that the battle may end in a draw, both girls open up. Penny opens up with a straight right to the patterned stocking. Then raising her skirt high she exposes the full extent of her ability. Dawn, taking advantage of her opponent's strategy, crosses her right over to the top of her left plain, sheer stocking.
As the contest draws to a close, both contestants expose their finer points. Dawn with a right to her head and a left to permit her plain, sheer stocking to score. Penny turns to her left and scores with a right to her patterned stocking. The winner? There are none.
