Kim Sisters key ad
For 29 US$ I have just managed to buy a Kim Sisters key ad from the Stardust Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada (with picture taken in 1969). The seller tells me the hotel is going to be shut at the end of this year, so I am lucky, I suppose, to get my hands on it. Basicaly, this is something that was stuck on a room key and advertised the entertainment on offer downstairs. The Kim Sisters were noted performers in the States from around 1959 to the early seventies, when their activities became limited to hotels and casinos. Those interested in Korea's most succesful starlets to date, might want to check out my "Supporting Our Boys: American Military Entertainment and Korean Pop Music in the 1950s and Early-1960s" in Keith Howard's Korean Pop Music: Riding the Wave (Global Oriental, 2006).RHM

Ah, Christ You Guys! I can't possibly keep up with the two of you! (Thank Heavens half your blogstuff is in Spanish, or I'd really be in trouble!) What the *&%$#@!!! And who's this other bloke?
Cute cat. Seems to have a bit of "personality." You know, I had a couple of those furry, demanding things before I left home. Very affectionate and peculiar. Oh my, I miss 'em both.
I'll sened email just as soon as I get my act together (and yes...inevitable question...when exactly will THAT be?)
Who frickin' knows? (Hopefully soon....as always.)
Love Ya' Both--
Aaron
