Not Sabrina.  I think she wanted to be another Diana Does, nothing like the mystery girl.

From what I remember of Marion Ryan she had quite a rounded plump face - but then she would have been older than the original picture. There are definitely similarities, also Lita Roza.


I agree, not Sabrina, I seem to remember she was known for certain attributes not shown in the picture  ;D

I've kept it b & w but hopefully made it better to compare with the others as the original is a snapshot without the benefit of lighting ... I'm voting Marion Ryan, cheers, Ian

I'm still getting the ERROR, there is a picture with the same filename ... clearly I've substantially altered the photo AND renamed it.

It seems odd that we can't immediately identify her. Are you sure she wasn't an old girlfriend of your Dad's ?  ;D ;D ;D ;D.

I recognised Miss World immediately as I'm sure others did.

I can't stop looking at this, and every time I look at the photo I see a young Julie Andrews. I can hear you all from here  saying "Its not Her"  ;D
I have downloaded the image and tried a "Google image" match without success ::)

She's American, I think the OP's father would have mentioned that.
