I sent this hardbacked first edition autobiography from 1997 titled "Twiggy in Black and White" off to the '60's super model on the 1st of November. This is the 2nd of the 3 for a £1 books I sent off on TTM missions. Today the book has been retured signed to the title page. in Biro...Full name too...and Twiggy has kindly signed one of the photo's in the book, Certainly the Twiggy look with those famous eye-lashes.
Lesley Lawson (née Hornby; born 19 September 1949), widely known by the nickname Twiggy, is an English model, actress and singer. In the mid-1960s she became a prominent British teenage model of swinging sixties London with others such as Penelope Tree. Twiggy was initially known for her thin build (thus her nickname) and her androgynous look consisting of large eyes, long eyelashes, and short hair.In 1966, she was named "The Face of 1966" by the Daily Express and voted British Woman of the Year. By 1967, Twiggy had modelled in France, Japan, and the U.S., and landed on the covers of Vogue and The Tatler. Her fame had spread worldwide
Pleased with this one..Thanks Twiggy Lawson" The face of '66 "!
And another £3's worth of stamps to fight another day...3rd time I've used these...Thanks Royal Mail again.
