April 22, 1923 – Dec. 11, 2008

Bettie May Page died late yesterday at 85 after suffering a heart attack last weekend. The pin-up queen's authorized website, www.bettiepage.com, was down a few minutes ago, having crashed from an overload of online mourners.

We'll miss you, Bettie.

After the jump is a more representative photo of Page in her prime. (Semi-safe for work, depending where you work.)
