Celebrating The “Freckled” Canadian Playmate Pamela Anne Gordon!
Sometimes a fun story drops in your lap, like when a search for another “2021 Sex Kitten Countdown” star led me to Pamela Anne Gordon – and I’m glad it did!
I happened upon Pamela Anne Gordon – who was not only Playboy’s first Canadian Playmate Of The Month, but the most freckled Playmate I’ve ever profiled!
Pamela was born in 1943 in British Columbia.
This was an era when the magazine covers were more chaste, and the pictorials were as well…oh, and the magazine cost 60 cents!
In March 1962, Pamela became Playboy’s first Canadian Playmate, and here’s why:
Now only was she stunningly beautiful but look at those freckles!
Pamela went on to work at a Playboy Club in Canada, and was also named one of the top Canadians of 1962 by Liberty magazine.
This was an era when less was shown, more was suggested, and the Playmates didn’t automatically jump into film and TV work….Pamela has no other credits!
If anyone knows what Pamela went on to do, let me know…she reminds me of another Playmate who also chose not to pursue a career in entertainment:
Candy Loving was notably Playboy’s 25th Anniversary Playmate, but she also disappeared soon afterwards, promoting stories like this one:
She was gorgeous, but chose not to pursue the limelight – see her story here:
Candy did, in fact, beat out Dorothy Stratten for the title of 25th Anniversary Playmate:
Stratten was the next Playmate Of The Year, however, and was on her way to stardom when her estranged husband murdered her….a shocking story to be sure, but if you want to celebrate all that Dorothy achieved in her short life, I paid homage to her here:

Too many freckles for me!

I hoped Pamela stayed out of the sun following her Playboy days. She looked like a candidate for major skin damage. She was a beautiful young lady though. Hope her life has been good to her.

I worked with a redhead on a show once and she told me all of the things she had to avoid due to her skin…I hope Pamela knew the same!

Any idea who drew that 1962 cover?

I’m quite surprised Russ Meyer never discovered her. She would have been a star.

Sad news to report. She died just recently at the age of 79.

She was a knockout, John. The combination of those wonderful breasts and sexy freckles, just gorgeous. Sad to hear she has died at the age of 79. (From the comments.)
Best wishes, Pete.
