It comes as no surprise that the LA Dodgers are a fashion magnet. Earlier this year we saw current Dodger players model clothing by Ted Baker London during their inaugural LADF Blue Diamond Gala, and who can forget the fashionable stylings of Andre Ethier and Juan Uribe.
Of course, fashion models have also found a way to the Dodgers; as evidenced by the photos in this post.
While perusing eBay I came across a couple of listings featuring a sizable group of ladies posing for the cameras at both the Coliseum and Dodger Stadium while fans and players alike looked on.
All of the photos are undated. Clearly, though, most of the pics are from the LA Coliseum. So, they date from 1958 to 1961. In the pic at the very top (see auction here), several Dodger players pose with the models using the Coliseum stands as a backdrop. From left to right; Stan Williams (?), pitcher Don Drysdale, Dodger coach Walter Alston, and Norm Sherry.
The grouping of photos below (you can see these at this auction listing) also show both the grandstands and the players dugout at the LA Coliseum. Click any pic to embiggen.
What the heck is the lady below holding? Is that a bat wrapped in lace?
The photo contact sheet below is at Dodger Stadium. Walter Alston is in the group photo.
And here is a lady standing at the on-deck circle with the Coliseum torch in the background (see this auction here). Is that Gil Hodges on his knee?
