P.J. Lansing

Playboy Playmate of The Month for February 1972

P.J. Lansing Bio

P.J. Lansing is an American Playboy Bunny, glamour and nude model. She was born on October 13, 1949, in Frankford, Missouri. Playboy named her its February 1972 Playmate at 22. Her appearance came during Playboy's 1970s print era, when the magazine reached the height of its mass-market influence.

Lansing has natural breasts, blue eyes and blond hair. Her measurements are 36-25-36.

Captured by photographer Pompeo Posar, Lansing’s centerfold favors clean lines and an attention to texture over overt theatrics—Posar’s framing lets the quiet details of posture and fabric do the work, giving the images a quietly cultivated feel rather than a parade of stagecraft.

During the shoot she was already working with materials as seriously as models do: sources note she was studying fashion design while employed at a fabric store in Colorado, a combination that reads less like a side job and more like vocational training in cut, color, and construction.

Those practical skills carried beyond the studio. Lansing later took a post at the Playboy Club in Chicago, placing her where presentation and service intersected with nightlife and hospitality during that period of the brand’s history.

Seen together, the photographic credit and the fashion studies sketch a small but specific career arc—one in which an interest in making clothes and handling textiles sits beside the more visible work in front of the camera. The result is a portrait of a model whose recorded background connects image-making and craft in a manner typical of a certain strand of early ’70s glamour.
