Hurricane Kay Montez
Added 2022-01-27 21:36:18 +0000 UTCThis is hurricane came Montez. I have acquired two photographs of her and I’m really digging in to research about her. If you have any information please let me know, I would love for you to share, message me. I do know that she obviously was with the house of exotics out of Baltimore Maryland. There’s so much interesting history to Baltimore, since I have acquired these photographs from my friend Bella Sin, I’ve been doing nothing but archiving over the last week. I have archived hundreds of photographs and magazines so far and I’m starting to finally scratch the surface of the burlesque, striptease and sex work history I have picked through the years.
As guests on my page, you will all have access to this archive of information. I’m organizing it all right now and I’m thrilled to announce a multitude of performers I had never seen or heard of before I started organizing my collection.
It’s exciting to finally feel like a proper museum. I’m so appreciative to Bella Sin for donating some incredible pieces to me like this one in the photo above. It’s been an incredibly rough month, year and this has been an incredible part of my healing process. I’m so thankful to finally have access to my entire collection and we moved into a proper home that I own and can finally unpack. Unpacking has taken eight months and we’re about 3/4 of the way there.
So enjoy this photo courtesy of Bella Sin and the Cleveland Burlesque festival and I will be sure to update you with more photos soon!

2022-01-30 18:23:11 +0000 UTCHave you run across a dancer called Gloria Divine? She toured the men’s clubs in the mid to late 1970’s. She was from Ohio. Blonde and curvy.

2022-01-29 13:58:05 +0000 UTCI'd love to find out why she used the name "Hurricane" . I'm thinking some kind of connection to "Tempest Storm" ??? Maybe a tribute of sorts. 🤔
