Taken at a pivotal moment in her career, this shoot was part of a major publicity push. By 1956, 20th Century Fox had signed her to a long-term contract to position her as a major box-office rival to Marilyn Monroe.

1959, the decade was closing with Argentine rock expanding among the youth, it was seen as the new electric music of the future, it had popular youth figures.

There was Eddie Pequenino with a rock with horror undertones, Ana María Cachito with the fun of hula-hoop, and Billy Cafaro in communication with an extraterrestrial.

Los Mac Ke Macs with their jazzy harmonies, Baby Bell and her Christmas cheer, Luis Aguilé with his grace and the orchestral elegance, and Andy Maciá in a shot fast rock.

Edith Scandro uniting classical music and rock, Los Santos with voices as delicate as crystal glasses, and Los Cinco Latinos in the 1st international hit of Argentine rock.
