Do you have any Sabrina stuff? Please let me know

I know this is a monstrously LARGE page, but I'm trying to progressively 'theme' photos into dedicated pages. The pictures below are those which, so far, defy categorisation. Apologies for the inordinate loading time, but please enjoy the mammoth Sabrina-density it provides!

Several of these pix are courtesy of Sabrina Hall of Fame members: 'The Guy From the Netherlands' and Lord Reg and ceguah

On the back of the photo:

Sabrina can't dance, sing or act -- yet she is the sensation of British TV and soon will be guest starring on U.S. channels. And the reasons why are quite obvious.

 

 

Sabrina - and buckets!

Who knows what this was about. We have Sabrina. We have buckets. Beyond that, I'm baffled. Any ideas?

Thanks to Steve Page for this one!

There was an interesting stamp on the back of this photo...

Russ Meyer, renowned tits-man and director/producer of the classic arthouse film Faster Pussycat, Kill Kill!, bragged that he shagged all of his models.  Did he take this pic, I wonder?

 

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.

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!

I have 27 sabrina images obtained from various locations on the internet over the last 5 or 6 years. Great site -- particularly like the aussie tv video clip. She and June Wilkinson are the only Brit 1950s pinup gals that I can specifically recall seeing in mags during my callow youth.


The next three are courtesy of ignatz whose patient searching of the web over the years has reaped these Sabrinasnaps. Thanks, ignatz! He also provided some larger/better copies of existing pix, which have replaced my originals.

ceguah said: Bought this mag together with a few more, some featuring Sabrina, in a second hand shop in the mid sixties (in Sweden).

Sabrina - Norma Sykes

ceguah said: The first photo of "Sabrina again" pictorial in 'Show'. This one is identical to '66-14a1.jpg' but higher resolution. Unfortunately I don’t have the complete magazines anymore, just some pictures. No covers – one reason I can’t identify them.

Sabrina - Norma Sykes

Sabrina Again - VIP version

Caption: SABRINA AGAIN. Sabrina, whether on Television or on tour, always merits a place in Show. These pictures come from Southampton.

2009 - the 'more upgraded' versions and VIP quality image arrived, courtesy of Sir David J.

ceguah said: Second photo of "Sabrina again"

Sabrina on the telephone - VIP version

The original caption read: 'The TV star's measurements have changed recently from 39-24-37 to 40-23-36. We wonder where it will all end.'

[Probably at 41½-18-36]

Sabrina near the telephone - VIP version

ceguah said: 'Sabrina again' photo 4. The last one in this series.

Sabrina - Norma Sykes

Sabrina Again! - VIP version

ceguah said: This photo is from Rekord-Magasinet, a Swedish magazine directed to (young) men, mainly devoted to sports and short stories of suspense and adventure, always holding a high moral profile. The stories were generally followed by a ”bon mot” like ”Remember - crime doesn’t pay” and the like. If I remember right, the pic was accompanied by some words about Sabrina's trip to the USA, "but now the British are happy to to have their bosom queen back home again" or something like that.

Exactly which issue and what year I don't know, but it is from the early sixties.

These are not the greatest photos of our Sabby - focus and composition are not good, and they were probably binned by the photographer or editor. Nevertheless, they are part of Our Sabrina's life.

Of particular interest was the information on the back of some the photos.

Not a great Sabrina photo. Focus is bad, beehive is awful, expression is pained.
Sorry - I really don't like beehives!

Aha! Found two matches for the beehive-black ribbon shot from the scrapbook page (below)

"English film actress Sabrina, formerly Norma Sykes of Blackpool, who is famed for her physical attributes rather than her skill as an actress."

'Sabrina worship has reached a new frenzy. But Sabrina, alias Norma Sykes of Blackpool, is not satisfied. A 40-inch bust is not enough. A girl must improve herself.'

From Reveille, July18-24, 1963

Look who is adding a few fresh contours to this rock formation.  It's Sabrina!  Her beauty is reaching the dizzy heights as usual.  Just in case you haven't noticed, perhaps we should mention that above her 41-19-36 figure she is wearing a rather striking hat.

And those eagle-eyed hat-fanciers among you will surely have noticed that this picture is one of the Coronado Hotel series!

This was found on eBay, disfigured by a logo (see below). Thanks to Edward for pointing out this pic to me.

Sabrina - Norma Sykes

Some careful work with Microsoft Image Composer cleaned it up as well as I could manage, but I had to cut off her forelock.

Update: in May 2009, Louis provided a glorious glossy photo to finish this story. BOOBS members can click the key to revel in its full depths:

Sabrina's birthday 1960

The more interesting story relates to the caption on the back of the photo:

May 23 1960. NEW YORK: Buxom British Belle SABRINA pours champagne glass as she celebrates her 23rd birthday at Gotham Hotel here May 21st. Sabrina recently returned from year-long tour of Australia and the Far East."

This stirs up the age/birthday mystery again. It implies Sabby was born on May 21, 1937. Read up on the birthday debate.

This is, I believe, the WORST photo ever taken of our Sabrina.
Anyone else have an opinion?

Sabrina - Norma Sykes

This one, probably from the same photoshoot,
was found and sent in by Paul. Thanks, Paul!

Sabrina and Barry Sullivan in a PR photo taken during the London filming of Another Time, Another Place in 1957. Oddly, it's the irrelevant girl on the left who captures one's attention. The PR photo man obviously didn't care!

Barry starred in over 100 movies, including Demon Planet, also known as:

Planète des vampires, La France
Planet der Vampire West Germany
Planet of Blood (undefined)
Planet of the Vampires USA
Planeta dos Vampiros, O Brazil
Schrecken im Weltall West Germany
Space Mutants (undefined)
Terror en el espacio Spain
Terror in Space (undefined)
The Haunted Planet (undefined)
The Haunted World (undefined)
The Outlawed Planet (undefined)
The Planet of Terror (undefined)
The Planet of the Damned (undefined)

Such a list of noms de plume rivals Sabrina's infamous House of Black Death, which was a flop in spite of 4 different names!

 

Sabby shows off her famous 18 inch metal belt.
Hear her talking to me about her trials getting it on!

The tiny original image was enlarged with Alien Skin Blow Up, and the disfiguring boob-positioned watermark removed with Photoshop.

Found on eBay in July 2007 - a signed clipping with a starting price of 10 quid - about $OZ25! After enlarging it with Alien Skin Blow Up plugin in Photoshop, the text became easier to read:

In the past Norwich Carnival has brought big name stars to town. Stars like Mike Preston, Miss World and Ken Dodd. Now this year we are bringing SABRINA. She will ride in the procession, crown the Carnival Queens, and then will be at the Civic Hall on Carnival Night for the Carnival Dance. As the Dubber (??) News goes to press negotiations are being made to bring other top personalities to the Carnival. Watch out for more details."
