She was little, but she had beautiful legs...JUDY GARLAND. Check her out in "For Me and My Gal". I'm as short as she was, but alas, that's where the similarities end....

No one's mentioned Rita Hayworth. Have you seen her in Cover Girl ? Wow!

Judy's great legs were on show in the Get Happy routine from Summer Stock and singing Mr. Monotany, a deleted scene from Easter Parade
saw her in a mini-skirt in the late 60s and her pins appeared skinny, as if she'd lost some weight in her later yrs

If I had to chose a pair of pins I'd go for Cyd Charisse
I'd also like her dancing ability too

Huh, never heard the term "Pins" before? Those are "Gams" folks!
Alison,
I agree Cyd Charisse Her's were "Gamtacular"! And she sure could Hoof-It as well!
Have to think up a list of ladies, and get back to this thread later on.

You can look at the ladies 'gams', I prefer looking at the men's 'pecs'.

Joan Crawford in her 60s showed she still had a fine pair of pins (must be a Brit term) and held her own with the younger Diana Dors and Judy Geeson in Beserk
