I believe you might be correct, JMR. .........or perhaps Bunny isn't in the photograph at all.


The majority of the photographs on eBay are from the 'Bunny Yeager Estate'.
After years of modeling, Bunny became a well known photographer. (mostly of other pin-ups)
I noticed that photographs taken by Ms. Yeager (as a professional photographer) are often mislabeled & name her as the subject matter instead of the photographer. (when, in fact, the photographs are of some other pin-up)


AND to make it even more confusing Bunny Yeager took a lot of self-portraits.

For instance. .






But is this really a self-portrait. . .or a photograph of someone else taking a self-portrait.




Then there's this one from the Bunny Yeager Estate.


eBay


"BUNNY YEAGER Self Portrait."


eBay (this negative is no longer listed. . .but reprints are available. .which are much cheaper obviously)

But Bunny is usually a blonde. .soooooooo. . .is this her? ...or someone else?
Whoever she is, she certainly isn't the blonde woman in the first "self portrait". (I realize women dye their hair but they don't even look alike)









Here's another one that I find a bit confusing.

note that Bunny's camera is in the photograph. .and so is she (supposedly)


eBay


This is from the bottom of the photograph.



so. . ..um. . it's copyrighted by Bunny Yeager but. . .Oh, never mind.
