British S-Bomb

Foto-Rama March 1958

Sabrina - Norma Ann Sykes

England's young bucks have been flipping their bowlers over this slick armful.

Sabrina, the British war cry in answer to America's Marilyn and Jayne, feels she needs only one name to get by. And with her looks, few would deny it. Even by Hollywood standards - Sabrina is an extremely beautiful girl. She's natural in every way, from her blonde hair to her eye-catching sweater-filling 40-22-36 figure.

Sabrina's charms simply cannot be hidden, and Sabrina doesn't try. She's a size 40.

She's never said more than a word and a half on English TV (she plays walk-on roles ala oldie Dagmar and never fails to stop the show cold) and is one of the highest paid English stars. In England her name is a household word - and she's a gal for whom most Englishmen, even the stuffiest would hock their umbrellas if they could lure her into their households.

"English women have a reputation for being so reserved. I'm not that way."

In response to the question, "Do you think she'll take Jayne Mansfield's place in America?", one bumbershoot-carrying monocle-wearer replied, "My dear sir, who is Jayne Mansfield?"

Sabrina does leave you with that feeling, all right.

Open-mouth stares greet Sabrina wherever she goes. Would Americans be as reserved?
