Research - bikini poster - 80's vintage

I figured the PPOT consortium could possibly help me on a "research" effort - involving a specific swimsuit poster from the early 1980's.

A few months back - about the time of Farrah's death, I vaguely recalled a poster of a long haired brunette wearing a blue bikini. For the life of me, I can't place the name of the gal though. It seems that she might have been a TV actress (from Knots Landing, Dallas, or other series of that timeframe), and I thought it may have been Tracy Scoggins, but I haven't been able to locate any image that is close to being what I remember being the poster.



Do any of you guys that had gone through puberty at that time have any ideas?

No idea, but I do remember the picture. I believe it was cold in the studio where the picture was taken though.

Dark hair, blue eyes, high beams, blue two piece, right?

I did a search for "brunette bikini poster". You should try it some time.

This isn't it, but I don't think it matters

I tried several other options, and I found a lot of stuff, but after a while, I forgot what I was looking for.

Nope - I know the poster is not of Heather Locklear, Heather Thomas, or Barbi Benton.

Well - I appreciate the help, but the pursuit continues. I know it was a brunette - not Heather, wasn't Kathy Ireland either. If it was Tracy Scoggins, I haven't found an image on the internet of the poster itself. Seems like it was taken with the model standing in a doorway looking straight at the camera - high cut bikini bottoms.
