Propaganda
Julie Newmar (Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, The Marriage-Go-Round, Lil Abner)— Lil' Abner came out in 1959. I was 8. And Julie Newmar as Stupefyin Jones - the "deadly weapon guaranteed to stupefy any human male" stepped out and struck her pose, my eyes were opened to a whole new set of possibilities.
Yoshiko Yamaguchi (Scandal, Sayon's Bell, House of Bamboo)—Coluratura soprano, actress, journalist, and politician! She plays opposite Hot Vintage Man Winner Toshiro Mifune in the movie Scandal and is so gorgeous and talented.
This is round 1 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.
[additional propaganda submitted under the cut]
Julie Newmar:
She's the tall, stately one (Dorcas). I'm not saying seven women in corsets dancing and singing made me a lesbian but I'm not /not/ saying that.
She kicked ass as Catwoman but also sang and dance in a corset in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers and looked terrific either way.
Yoshiko Yamaguchi:

Candy Darling on her deathbed (1974) photog: Peter Hujar
Darling died of lymphoma on March 21, 1974, aged 29, at the Columbus Hospital division of the Cabrini Health Care Center. In a letter written on her deathbed and intended for Warhol and his followers, Darling wrote, "Unfortunately before my death I had no desire left for life ... I am just so bored by everything. You might say bored to death. Did you know I couldn't last. I always knew it. I wish I could meet you all again." Her funeral, held at the Frank E. Campbell Funeral Chapel, was attended by huge crowds. Julie Newmar read the eulogy. Darling's birth name was never spoken by the minister or any of the eulogizers. Faith Dane played a piano piece, and Gloria Swanson saluted Darling's coffin.
