The National Police Gazette, New York, N.Y. 12/4/1915
Proofing was rather lax in the past. This is the only mention of Lina Cavalieri mentioned in the entire tabloid (mostly a sporting paper) and it is a photo of Guerrero. There is a great resemblance between the two in early Reutlinger photos.
I've seen contemporary newspaper articles on Guerrero containing photos of the Australian dancer Saharet. In fact, there is a book called Der Tanz, I think published in the 1920s or 1930s, where she is represented by a photograph of Saharet. Saharet, though a can-can dancer, was photographed many times in Spanish costume.
There is one photo postcard of Guerrero, where "Cavalieri" is airbrushed out and "Guerrero" is typed in.
Hi!
ReplyDeleteI wanted to congratulate you for your blog and thank you for allowing us to see so many pictures of our aunt Rosario. I have a hard time finding information and images of her.

Hello Cristina,
