Sabrina In Rome - November 1958

Do YOU have any Sabrina stuff?

En route to Australia in 1958, Sabrina stopped in Rome. A LOT of photos were taken of her between the 12th and 15th of November that year! In 2011, thanks to a tip from the noble Guy From The Netherlands , we have 100 pix of Sabrina in Rome: arriving, getting her (clay) bust built, visiting the Trevi fountain, having dinner and a hoola hoop, and being a tourist. For those who care, to the Italians she was "Sabrina Anor Sikas" - their version of Ann Sykes! They come from an press images site and are heavily watermarked, but the site's rules of use say that non-commercial use of their low-res images is permitted. So we get to see some brand new photos of a little-understood time.
