An Original Vintage Theatrical Color 9 1/4" x 12 1/2" [23 x 32 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Dorothy Lamour was born in Louisiana in 1914. She was Miss New Orleans at 16, and she became the vocalist in the Herbie Kaye band, and married the bandleader. She was spotted by Paramount Pictures, and after a few uncredited appearances, she starred in The Jungle Princess, where she wore a floral print wrap-around sarong, and she was a sensation. She made five more "sarong pictures" and she also starred in the "Road" movies opposite Bob Hope and Bing Crosby (sadly in the last of these she was dubbed too old, and she was cast aside for a younger sexy Joan Collins). She also made made other movies, but she will always be remembered as the sexy sarong girl! She passed away in 1996 at the age of 81. Important Added Info: Note that this still is a mystery, because we have no idea what country it is from. It is printed on a medium weight paper that is not photo paper, and it has an elaborate printed border designed to simulate a mat. It was definitely taken from a U.S. still, because Miss Lamour's name is in the bottom left and bottom right. If anyone knows more about what country this is from, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that this still has been trimmed and it now measures 9 1/4" x 12 1/2" [23 x 32 cm]. Condition: good to very good. Some of the outer blank white borders were trimmed off and there are some smudges in the borders (see our image). Learn More about condition grades
