Gaby Ryke aka Gaby Malone was a huge vintage pinup and adult model during the 1960s. Her credits are quite extensive, and the below list isn’t even complete! She went under a large number of names in her career, Amber Day, Myrna Taylor, Connie Brent, Elaine Atherton, Sonja Heinz, and lastly as Gaby Goodwin. She hailed from Britain and seems to have gone through a variety of hair styles and hair colors in her career. Between that hair changes and the name changes, she’s quite hard to track down.

There is also a clip of a “60’s Pool Party” floating around the Internet with her stripping out of a bikini and doing a strip tease on top of a diving board. I find this very sexy!
Sadly, despite all of this information about Gaby Ryke and her fairly lengthily career for those days, we don’t really know much about her as a person. I hope you enjoyed these pictures and a brief look into her long career.
