Did everyone watch 60 Minutes' rerun last night? Mark Rossler (CMG) gave a (very) short blurb on our Bettie Page!

He took the host and camera person down into their basement archives and showed a (cheesy) Bettie Page costume CMG is (or was) selling. He explained how they (the heirs) receive "big royalties" from all his "dead clients".....

My question: what does the Page family actually receive from these so-called "big royalties" ?? I love Bettie to death, but she was no M. Monroe Or J. Dean -- to whom, by the way, Mr. Roesler devoted most of his air time .... on 60 Minutes!

Brian - This question has come up before. My deal with Bettie (and now her heirs) pre-dates CMG's involvement with her. So, I'm not privy to the CMG arrangement. Roesler did tell me that Bettie's website gets more hits than Marilyn Monroe's or James Dean's. I've heard that the revenue from her licensing is "substantial," whatever that means. - Mark
