Description From my volunteer project with the local historical society. ZiZi is wearing the World War II Women's Auxiliary Corps uniform and is posed on a 1943 Philco radio-phonograph that I found last year in the dumpster.

I hate to nitpick an otherwise excellent photo, but the flag should have 48 stars. Alaska and Hawaii were not states during World War II.

Haha, I know. We had to make do with stealing the building's flag - pre-1940s ones are hard to come by!

Always the most excellent imagery to be found here. Doing her best to be Earnest, Sgt. ZiZi Bilko, says Wilco from atop the Philco. SALUTE!

Thanks It's my all time most awesome dumpster find... some old lady up the street thought it was worthless because it didn't work.

Sad to throw something like that away, but a happy ending with it's new lease on life.

Thanks It was donated to the Carondelet Historical Society by a lady who is currently in a nursing home... they are going to print the pictures I took of it and give them to her!

Seen a few of these shots come up as I refreshed the front page, they're really quite nice. Models too.
