Come on Down

February 2, 2021

As a kid in the 80s, one of the highlights of being home sick from school is catching Dian Parkinson on The Price is Right, often in a bikini while presenting some fabulous vacation prize package. From ’75 to ’93, Parkinson did her thing The Price Is Right as one of ‘Barker’s Beauties’ making her 18-year tenure on the show among the longest of any of the models, second only to Janice Pennington, who was with the show for more than 28 years. Enjoy this gallery from a sexy shoot Dian did shortly after her departure from the show which featured her in nothing but a torn up TPIR t-shirt a pair of socks 😋
