An old forgotten photo





An old forgotten photo that I found in an antique/thrift store yesterday. The man running the place said the photo had come from a (probably long gone) restaurant called Pelikan in Solna (in or close to Stockholm) that supposedly had variety shows. I think it's more plausible it came from an old cinema. Be that how it may, she is a great beauty that deserves to be shown.

"Patricia Medina, Hollywood's new star in the "Arabian nights"-genre, doesn't appear to lack what it takes to portray oriental beauties"
