Southwestern Virginia Area Middle Eastern Dance Association (swameda.com?) used to have a link to that particular page called "Harem Girls: a Cheesecake Gallery" something like that I think that was a link to the Shanmonster.com page. There really is a lot of stuff. There are a couple of lovely pictures of my mother's contemporaries in Greektown NYC like Serena and Norica and Zahra Kader, etc.

I tried to google for this site (have been looking for it!) but can't find it. Can someone post the link?

Yeah, the Shanmonster site is cool! A lot of my mother's old buddies from the belly dance circuit in the sixties and seventies are on that site and I enjoyed showing that to her a couple of years ago. It pretty much runs a gamut also showing belly dancers in art, old postcards, "pseudo" dancers, etc. So you can see the different looks across the board. The site also shows some old "Burlesque" performers. I remember recognizing Jack Paar's first wife Burlesque sensation Sally Keith of Boston who was big in the 40's. I e-mailed the web hostess about her identity but alas, never heard back.

Shanmonster in Canada has some fun vintage photos on her web site. I don't remember the link, but you should be able to find her with a bit of googling for "shanmonster"

Folks, A while back (and 2 computers ago), I recall stumbling upon a website that featured some fabulous old, vintage photos of belly dancers and people portraying belly dancers (i.e. Doris Day, etc.) in old films. Would anyone out there know which site I'm talking about and might be able to provide a link? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated! ~S~
