Some more lovely colour shots, again thanks to Countess Anastasia of Siberia

We may never know what made Sabrina gasp.

Sadly, we'll probably never know what amazing scoop this mag cover referred to...

Read the story of Sabrina and Tuborg on the Sabrina Sells page.

And of course Sabrina loved her furs

See more of Sabby in her bathers

And more of Sabby having a wash

A lovely find - a 35mm colour slide from a series found by Scott P. Thanks, Scott!

1955

Added 6 June 2018 - A fantastic new pic from Countess Anastasia of Siberia. It's from High magazine, July 1959.
There are three interesting features:
1. It's quite raunchy for a Sabrina pic. I've never seen another pic with legs spread like that.
2. The scars from her childhood right leg brace seem to be evident.
3. Sabby is in her genuine hair colour - strawberry blonde. (AKA "ginger")

And a related find from 2020...

From the days of the 1955 Stockcar movie

This covershot seems to belong to the following series.
The dress and the hair colour seem to match, even if the hairstyle and eyebrows don't.

Sabrina at the Point Leo Life Saving Club in December 1958, thanks to Brian Horwood.
Added 16 Oct 2010, he said:

Attached is the photo we have of Sabrina at a surf carnival at Point Leo in December 1958. She came down to the club during the period she was doing a show at the Tivoli Theatre in Melbourne. She presented the trophy to the winner of a major surf race. Plenty of publicity (about her presence) meant we had something like 10,000 spectators there, giving very good takings at the gate. Trust this photo is of interest to you. Best wishes ... Brian Horwood
