    She also posed for some French post cards.

  9. Thanks guys. PJM, sometimes I get lucky. I was at first taken with her turban, but then I started thinking the pearls might have more to do with it. Quick search of dancers with pearls turned up Gaby Deslys pretty fast.

    If you're looking for more fun, I invite everyone to my site at natemaas.com for a second contest, starting now.

  14. I always thought I was pretty good, researching in the internet -- but I am like kindergarten bracket compared to Nate and Roger and PJM. I am not even at the starting line when one of them have the answer! But I'll keep peeking in here, to learn something each time I do.
