Nudes Return To Harass Star

Meriden record, 9 January 1956

LONDON, Jan. 8 -Britain's chestiest television personality — Sabrina — is worried about some nude pictures she posed for before pushing forward as a TV star.

The nudes are used to decorate the back of playing cards widely sold in this country and abroad. Sabrina, who gained a reputation as a pin-up girl by posing in plunging neckline gowns, was silent about the disclosure of her model past.

But the 22-year-old TV star's mother had plenty to say. She told reporters her daughter was consulting a lawyer to see if anything can be done to stop circulation of the nudes.

"These nude photographs are driving her to distraction," her mother said. "I'm really worried about the effect these pictures will have on my daughter's career. She was an inexperienced girl when they were taken.

"It is shameful that she should be exploited and held up to ridicule because of the pictures now. She has been taking legal advice."

A spokesman for the card manufacturing company was more pleased than worried about the latest uproar.

"We're not worried," he said "All the pictures are respectable and have been seen by Scotland Yard. The models have no grounds for complaint. All copyright is being taken care of. The sets are going very well both in Britain and overseas."
