A repeat, but an interesting one.  Note the stockings and garter belts, atypical for American films of the period.

From Robert Ruston's Playlist.  We need to thank him for assembling a very nice collection of classic cancan films.

A rarity.  I think this is a dancer from "Die Frau Meiner Traume", a wartime film featuring Marika Roekk in a Busby Berkeley-ish cancan extravaganza.  It is from an Ebay listing posted from Germany and bears an inscription on the back in German that refers to the film.
