Madeline Jackson aka “Sahji” was a stunning 1940′s exotic shake dancer. Little is know about her life but these snippets are left behind. She even graced the cover of Jet magazine announcing her career change to singing. While there is no known footage of her singing, there is video of her sultry dancing. Enjoy!
Hello out there! I’ve decided to do a new monthly feature. I have an extensive collection of vintage Jet magazine covers on file, and I think it’s about time I start sharing them. I have way too many to keep track of so hopefully I don’t do any repeats. I thought I would start with beach and swimsuit covers.
This magazine is impossible to find. I have no info about the publisher or how long it was around. I came across this by chance during my many hours of obsessing over vintage magazines. I promise I will find more. I love a challenge of finding the rarest of the rare. I love how vivid the covers are, hence the name. Enjoy!
So I posted some covers from Brown magazine way back in 2010. I found a few more so here’s the full spread of them. I absolutely love the colors on this magazine and the poses too. These are a lot of fun. Enjoy!
