By the looks of her bridge it looks like she can play some. Thanks for the great photo, I always enjoy your post.

No kidding. Decent bridge, level cue, good head position. Janis must of been a player.

Sophia Loren looks like she's no stranger to pool, either. ;) One foot on the floor, Sophia!

No stranger to pool? LOL WUT... she's shooting a stripe into a stripe.

These are very cool photos to see, but it's just famous people that have no idea what they are doing. Some may, but I'm pretty sure Bridgette Bardot didn't have pool in mind with that outfit :thumbup:
 
You need music to go with that photo

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Balabushka ?
My friends all play with SouthWest , I must make amends.
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
So Lord, won't you buy me a Balabushka ?

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a licensed Bushka ?
Adam-Musashi is trying to find me.
I wait for delivery each day until three,
So oh Lord, won't you buy me a licensed Bushka ?

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a night on the town ?
I'm counting on you, Lord, please don't let me down.
Prove that you love me and buy the next round,
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a night on the town ?

Everybody!
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Balabushka ?
My friends all play with (wrapless) SouthWest, I must make amends,
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
So oh Lord, won't you buy me a Balabushka ?

That's it!

Janis is from Port Arthur, Texas. Lots of little dive bars back then and they all had a couple of barboxes. She moved to Austin where she was 'discovered' by Kenneth Threadgill (he turned a service station into one of Austin's first bars).

Threadgill's is still there today (two locations), both restaurants, with great food and lots of cool pics of the past.

Then, Janis headed to SF and the world discovered her. She does show some good form in that pic. Wonder where it was taken?
 
Janis and Kenneth:
