I've seen it before as well and prefer to believe it is real. Very badly as a matter of fact.
Nice bit here on The Muppet Show.
I always felt she could do more but was so stunning that it typecast her. Maybe I'm wrong though.
She did make it to Andy Dufresne's prison cell wall in Shawshank Redemption however. So that's saying something right there. Previous posters were of Rita Hayworth and Marilyn Monroe. That's great company.
Rest easy Raquel......

I was so envious of the guy she used the strapon on in the movie Myra Breckinridge. I would have taken his place anytime.
There has to be millions of boys/men who have tossed off to her image. Probably in the top ten women of all time.
RIP
RIP
One of my first objects of desire while I jerked off dead of old age ???? <ouch>
According to James Mason, with whom Raquel co-starred in the 1973 film The Last of Sheila, Welch was "the most selfish, ill-mannered, inconsiderate actress that I've ever had the displeasure of working with"
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Last_of_Sheila#Shooting>
It reminds me of some dialogue from Heathers:
Veronica/ Winona Ryder: "Heather, why are you such a megabitch?".
Heather #3/ Shannen Doherty: "Because I can be".

Nope.
Raquel in Playboy Magazine
That's Candy Loving, Playboy's 25th Anniversary Playmate, (January, 1979 Playmate of the Month).
Larger version:
Pretty sure that's fake. According to Wiki, Welch refused to take all her clothes off on screen or pose naked throughout her career spanning five decades, saying this was the way she was brought up. According to Hugh Hefner, she declined to do complete nudity, and he yielded gracefully.
She came from a time when people had to hide their ethnicity. She was Hispanics but could never identify with her origins because it would effect her career. Just like Dean Martin could not embrace that he was Italian (born Dino Paul Crocetti ) or John Wayne could not admit he had a Chinese Grandfather. Even Robert Goulet could not reveal he was Canadian. He claimed he was born in Massachusetts, but it was only revealed that he was born in Canada after his death.
According to wikipedia he was born in Lawrence Massachusetts, but he did attempt to get Canadian citizenship since his parents were French Canadian and he did spend many years in Canada.
Raquel never posed for a revealing nude photo shoot, but she would likely have been nude for brief periods between costume changes at fashion shows, live performances, or a film/ movie set. There would have been opportunities for an insider with a camera to snatch a souvenir. I've looked at that picture closely in an enlarged view, and I don't have conclusive evidence to deem it a forgery.
