Also, I've never seen this woman in any post cards from Hawaii, which is also generally a sign that she's not IN Hawaii. Probably a series of photos sold for whatever purpose. One credits George Pickow of Three Lions as photographer. Another credits the "color transparency" to Three Lions. The others say nothing. Same set, different model. And here's one of her in the same session. THis one, a Santo & Johnny release from Germany, on Ariola, I believe a German budget label. Perhaps it's possible she was one of the dancers at the Hawaiian Room at New York's Lexington Hotel as some of thiose women showed up on LP covers shot on the mainland, but I don't think she is.
