Here's an excerpt from a contemporaneous article published by the Washington Post:
The News Leader (Staunton, Staunton, Virginia, United States of America).Greenfield also criticized Shields' mother for trying to "have it both ways," saying the actress had starred in provocative roles in movies such as Blue Lagoon and Pretty Baby: Justice Edward Greenfield stated that the pictures were "not erotic or pornographic" except to "possibly perverse minds," and that while the images might cause Shields personal embarrassment, they did not constitute "irreparable harm" as Shields' profile had risen in the years since the photographs were taken. The lawsuit was dismissed in a 4-3 decision by the New York State Supreme Court. In 1981, with Sugar and Spice out of print and Shields' profile on the rise, Shields sued Gross, arguing that the photographer should not be allowed to continue to profit from the images, and that the photographs would cause her irreparable harm. The above-displayed photograph is one of many that Gross took with the consent of Shields' mother, Teri Shields, in 1975. Although this meme may have given some viewers the impression that the image appeared in Playboy magazine itself, the picture was actually featured in the Playboy Press publication Sugar and Spice. The girl in the background of this meme is indeed a naked 10-year-old Shields, and the photograph was truly published by Playboy. But many internet users were blissfully unaware of the images until one appeared in a meme featuring a photograph of Playboy founder Hugh Hefner and passed around on social media: This series of photographs has been the source for controversy for decades. In 1975, photographer Garry Gross took several nude photographs of a 10-year-old Brooke Shields that were later published in a Playboy publication called Sugar and Spice.
