Tom Waits, Elvira, and Elvis

tikitacky:

Did you know the stripper on the cover of Tom Waits’ 1976 album, Small Change, is none other than Cassandra Peterson (aka Elvira, Mistress of the Dark)? Born in Kansas and raised in Colorado, young Cassandra made a beeline for Las Vegas just days after her 1967 high school graduation, soon becoming the youngest showgirl in Las Vegas history—not to mention the girlfriend of one Elvis Aaron Presley.

Curvy Swervy Dames: I dig these kinds of stories - I think I see the resemblance too.
