She certainly is projecting HER equipment.......... :mrgreen:

On this side of the pond, we're not familiar with her, guess she was sort of a British Marilyn Monroe.

I think her only talent was what you can see Vern :roll:

Norma Ann Sykes (born 19 May 1936), better known as Sabrina, was a 1950s English glamour model who progressed to a minor movie career. Her main claim to fame was her hourglass figure of prodigious 41-inch (100 cm) breasts coupled with a tiny 19-inch (48 cm) waist and 36-inch (91 cm) hips. Sabrina was one of "a host of exotic, glamorous (British) starlets ... modelled on the likes of Marilyn Monroe, Jayne Mansfield and Lana Turner" others included Diana Dors, Belinda Lee, Shirley Eaton and Sandra Dorne.

Not sure who did her scaffolding though :loco:

Yes, Cadillac had these from 1951 to 1958, in various sizes..........

But in this country, on a Cadillac, they were called "Dagmars", after this actress that was popular
in the early '50s.

"Dagmar bumpers, also known simply as Dagmars (D-HAG-mar) is a slang term for the artillery shell shaped styling elements found on the front bumper/grille assemblies on some Cadillacs. Artistically, the bumpers were probably supposed to suggest a feature from an aircraft. However, to the Viewer they suggested a popular actress of the day, Virginia Lewis (Dagmar).

Standing 5 feet 11 inches in her heels, Dagmar combined ”the voluptuous curves of a Venus, the provocative grace of a young Mae West and the virtue of a Girl Scout,” Murray Schumach wrote in The New York Times in 1950."
