Original Toronto Star caption: More trouble for erotic art. Metro detectives remove some of the seven paintings they seized yesterday from the Dorothy Cameron Art Gallery. Last week, police ordered her to remove one painting of three naked women in a suggestive pose. This time, they summoned Miss Cameron on a charge of showing obscene pictures and carted away the offending paintings ? all nudes ? wrapped in brown wrapping paper.
