Do YOU have any Sabrina stuff?
Thanks to Jeremy for these shots from the Thoresby Hall hotel guide |
24/11/58 - HOLLYWOOD: Britain's buxom actress, Sabrina, poses in the forecourt of Grauman's Chinese Theatre while actor Steve Cochran (foreground, back to camera) takes her picture. Sabrina, who at one time was billed as Britain's answer to Marilyn Monroe, is en route to Australia where she will appear in her own follies show. She stopped off here to see Cochran, an old friend. |
The next 8 pictures are postcards in the "Greetings" collection.

ceguah said: The next two B&W photos are from a pictorial in some British girlie magazine, Spick, Span, whatever. Probably late fifties judging from the text. Bought this mag together with a few more, some featuring Sabrina, in a second hand shop in the mid sixties (in Sweden).
The removed caption said: As most of you already know, Sabrina first leapt to fame on the Arthur Askey TV programme where she played the part of Arthur Askey's Dumb Blonde. Immediately afterwards she hit the headlines and has since become one of the most sought after Pin-up beauties in this country. Her pictures have appeared everywhere in magazines and newspapers etc. She is in constant demand for the opening of bazaars and similar functions. Recently made a film called "Stock Car." |
There endeth the Greetings series. |

 This, and 16 more eye-stopping pix, from 'Adventure' magazine, Nov 56 |

eBay description: A small mens type magazine a collection of glamour photos of the famous Sabrina never before published (1950S?) some taken with famous stars of the day. Includes fold out centre page pin-up dreamtime photo. This elusive little sucker appeared on eBay, starting at £UK3 and rapidly rising to £UK17! (It ended up selling for £26!! Ed.) Someone was certainly keen to get it, considering the maximum bid he/she allowed. I may be a Sabrina Fan, but that's too rich for my blood : considering Australia's exchange rate it would have worked out to $OZ47, not including postage. At that price, I could have booked it a seat on Qantas. But still, it looks wonderful. (November 2002) 23 November 2002: When all looked hopeless, David Jackson leapt to the rescue and bought the elusive little sucker : and here it is free and complete for all Sabrinaphiles! Bravo, David!
